COLLEGE & CAREER CENTER NEWS
Dear Class of 2025 and Parents/Guardians,
The 2025-2026 FAFSA is now open!
Why file the FAFSA? Each year, Oregonians have access to millions of dollars in state financial aid and billions of dollars in federal aid. Even if students are unsure of their plans after graduating, filing the FAFSA will give insight into the options available. There is support available for any post-high school track – certificates and certifications, 2-year degrees, and 4-year degrees. The FAFSA is the key to unlocking eligibility for different types of financial aid:
- Grants: Money for college you don’t have to pay back.
- Scholarships: Money for college based on merit, talent, or academic achievement.
- Work Study: Opportunities to work on campus to earn money while taking classes.
- Student Loans: Money students receive to help pay for college but will have to pay back.
The easiest way to file the FAFSA is online at the https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa Remember, filing the FAFSA is always free. The FAFSA will never require a fee to apply. Students and parents (of dependent students) must create an FSA ID at least three days before filing the FAFSA.
Resources needed to create an FSA ID include:
- Social Security Number (SSN)
- Full legal name
- Date of birth
- Mailing address
- Personal email address
- A memorable username and password
- FSA ID
- Federal income tax returns, W-2s, and other records of money earned from 2022
- List of any federal benefits received
- Asset information including bank statements and records of investments (if applicable)
- Records of untaxed income (if applicable)
