2024-25 FAFSA update (as of 4/17/2024)

The 2024-25 FAFSA timeline was delayed and will impact the distribution of financial aid offers. We have begun sending preliminary aid offers to new undergraduates.  There have been some issues with certain applications that have been identified, and we are working through those.   We have been told that the US Department of Education will reprocess some impacted FAFSAs starting the week of April 15th.  Some applications won't begin reprocessing until early May.  It is possible that your final offer will vary from your preliminary offer. 

We understand the uncertainty this situation creates for our students and their families.  Rest assured that we are committed to assisting you throughout this process.  We will work to ensure you have sufficient time and information to make informed educational decisions. 

There likely will be some delay in summer aid offers and possibly a delay in continuing student and new graduate student offers.  

If you have not completed your 2024-25 FAFSA, we strongly encourage you to take this step as soon as possible. 

At this time, 2024-25 FAFSAs are being processed at the normal 1-3 business day timeline.  Once the application is processed you'll get your FAFSA submission summary e-mail.

The ability to make corrections to your FAFSA should be available starting the week of April 15th.  Once available, you can log on to your studentaid.gov dashboard to make corrections as needed.

Once your FAFSA is processed, you'll get your FAFSA submission summary.  You will also be able to see this status on your studentaid.gov dashboard.  Full processing has been achieved by Federal Student Aid (for initial transactions), so within a few business days UWL should get your FAFSA.  Once we have your FAFSA you will get an e-mail.  Watch your to-do list in WINGS and your e-mail for any additional information on documents we may need or notification that your aid offer is ready.
