About this Form:

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is used by students to apply for federal student aid, including grants, work-study funds, and federal student loans. Many states, colleges, and career schools also use FAFSA information when considering financial aid.

How to Fill Out the FAFSA:

Use this fillable FAFSA PDF to enter student, parent, contributor, school, and financial information for the 2026–27 award year.

Review the official Federal Student Aid instructions carefully before completing the form. Required information, contributor details, deadlines, and school requirements can vary based on the student’s circumstances and the financial aid programs involved.

Important: Completing this PDF on Documents Helper does not submit a FAFSA application. The FAFSA PDF must be printed and mailed for processing, or you can complete and submit the FAFSA through the official Federal Student Aid online application.
