FAFSA Renewal

Step 1: Fill out your FAFSA renewal application

Renewing the FAFSA is your first step in the financial aid application process. It allows your school to create your financial aid package, including federal and private financial aid, scholarships, and grants.

Consider a private student loan

We always recommend that students complete the FAFSA, find scholarships, and seek federal financial aid first. However, a private student loan can be used to help cover additional education related expenses not covered by federal aid and scholarships. With competitive rates, a private student loan is a great option to help complete your financial aid package.
