The FAFSA is not available until January 1st for the 2012-2013 academic year...so as soon as your taxes are filed and your parents' taxes are filed (if you need to put them on your FAFSA) then you can fill out the FAFSA.

Yeah do it whether or not you have been admitted. Trust me when I say the early bird gets the worm (or in this case money) when it comes to need based financial aid.hangqianli wrote:that being said it has nothing to do with whether im admitted or not ? i should do that as long as my taxes and FAFSA are available?SA1928 wrote:The FAFSA is not available until January 1st for the 2012-2013 academic year...so as soon as your taxes are filed and your parents' taxes are filed (if you need to put them on your FAFSA) then you can fill out the FAFSA.
