Students and their contributors may now submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form to help fund their college education in the 2024-25 academic year.
The Cal State San Bernardino Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships strongly encourages students and their contributors to complete the FAFSA application as soon as possible in preparation for the 2025-26 academic year.
This year, there are a few changes to keep in mind:
- FAFSA Application Date: The FAFSA application is open now and CSUSB Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships encourages students and their contributors to start completing the application as soon as they can.
- Priority Filing Date: For students to maximize their financial aid options, they should aim to submit their applications by March 1, 2025. This priority deadline ensures they are considered for as many aid opportunities as possible. Mark this date on the calendar!
The CSUSB Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships is excited about the improvements being made to the FAFSA and CADAA process and is committed to making it easy for students to get the support they need. Now that the FAFSA application is open, the office is prepared with resources, upcoming workshops and one-on-one support to help answer students’ questions and guide you through the process.
Students should stay tuned to their CSUSB student portal, check out the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships website and follow it on Instagram at @csusbfa to stay up-to-date with the latest information.
The team in the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships is working to make next year’s financial aid process as smooth as possible for students, and is available to guide them through the process.
