New FAFSA Rules: What You Need To Know
Be in the know! The new FAFSA kickoff date is October 1, 2016, instead of the usual date of January 1. If you plan to attend college between July 1, 2017 and June 30, 2018, complete the 2017–18 FAFSA as soon as possible after October 1. Why?

Completing the FAFSA early will hold your place in line. Is there a reason for the date change? Yes. In past years, the new FAFSA was available on January 1, asking for…
