File the FAFSAIncoming Freshmen

Every student is highly encouraged to file the FAFSA to be considered for the most financial aid (including scholarships, grants, loans and Federal Work-Study).

Three things to know:

  1. You must file the FAFSA each year.
  2. Ohio State’s priority date for filing the FAFSA is February 1. You can still submit your FAFSA after that date, but filing before will give you priority aid consideration.
  3. For an estimate of your aid, you can use Ohio State’s Net Price Calculator.

Are you new to the FAFSA? Find links to additional websites under Resources.
