2024-25 FAFSA update (as of 4/27/2024)
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 identified with almost half of applications nationally. The US Department of Education has reprocessed some impacted FAFSAs, but other applications won't begin reprocessing until early May. It is possible that your revised offer will vary from your preliminary offer. We plan to begin sending out revised aid offers in mid-May to new undergraduates. The revised offer will reflect the federal reprocessing outcome.
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, schools do not have the ability to make any corrections to 2024-25 FAFSAs for special circumstances. If you are wanting a re-evaluation based on income reduction or other situations, that process is also delayed this aid year.
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 is currently 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.
