On January 30, the U.S. Department of Education additional updates to the FAFSA process, including a delay in the transmission of the student FAFSA information to colleges and universities. Please continue reading below for important updates.
- FAFSA information is now expected to be provided to schools in mid-March – more than a month later than expected. This delay is partially due to adjustments being made for the latest inflation data. This adjustment ensures that students will benefit from an additional $1.8 billion in federal aid.
- Once Millikin receives the FAFSA data, our office will complete Financial Aid Awards for both new and current students.
- Students will not miss out on any funding due to these delays.
- If you have not already completed your FAFSA, we encourage you to do so now. Submit your FAFSA at fafsa.gov using Millikin's school code: 001724.
