There have been some recent changes to State and Federal Financial Aid programs.
North Star Promise: To be considered for the North Star Promise Scholarship for the 2026–2027 academic year, you must submit your 2026–2027 FAFSA to the Department of Education by June 1, 2026. If your FAFSA is submitted after this date, you will not be eligible for the scholarship for that year.
Federal Direct Loans: Students received Federal Direct Loans who are enrolled less-then-fulltime will have their loan amount reduced based upon their actual enrolled credits. Find more information by clicking on the One Big Beautiful Bill Changes link on the left.
Start Your FAFSA Form Today!
Start your 2026–2027 FAFSA Form today! To begin, both you and your parent need to Create a StudentAid.Gov Account. If your parent does not have a Social Security Number (SSN) they can still create an account to complete their portion of the FAFSA. Find directions on how to complete this process here.
Federal Student Aid Estimator
Check out the new Federal Student Aid Estimator provided by the Department of Education. It can help you understand your potential options for paying for college by providing you an estimate of how much federal student aid you may be eligible for. This is an estimate tool and does not guarantee you will be eligible for these funds. Eligibility depends on the completion of the 2026-2027 FAFSA.
