How To Fill Out The FAFSA Form

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is a crucial step in securing financial assistance for your education at Alexander Academy. Follow these steps to complete the FAFSA and maximize your eligibility for federal and state financial aid programs.

Step 1: Gather Required Documents

Before starting your FAFSA application, gather the following documents and information

Step 2: Create a FSA ID

Before you can fill out the FAFSA, you need to create an FSA ID. This serves as your electronic signature and allows you to access and sign your FAFSA electronically. Visit the Federal Student Aid website to create your FSA ID.

Step 3: Start Your FAFSA Application

Visit fafsa.gov to start your FAFSA application. Begin a new application and follow the prompts to enter your personal information, including your name, address, date of birth, and your school’s information (use Alexander Academy’s school code).

Step 4: Enter Financial Information

Enter financial information from the documents you gathered in Step 1. Use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool (if eligible) to automatically transfer your IRS tax return information into your FAFSA form, which can simplify the process and reduce errors.

Step 5: Review and Submit Your FAFSA

Review your FAFSA form carefully to ensure accuracy and completeness. Double-check all entered information, including names, addresses, and financial details. Make any necessary corrections before submitting your FAFSA.

Step 6: Receive and Review Your Student Aid Report (SAR)

After submitting your FAFSA, you will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) via email or postal mail. Review your SAR for accuracy and to confirm your Expected Family Contribution (EFC), which is used to determine your eligibility for federal student aid.
