<p>I'm trying to start my FAFSA application.. I clicked "Get Started" and entered my name, ssn, and dob, but on the next page, where it says "When are you attending college?" it only has "Start 2010-2011 FAFSA". Where is the 2011-2012 option?!</p>
<p>The 2011-2012 FAFSA will be available on January 1, 2011…not before.</p>
<p>oh… lol sorry. the website said it was up already so i was like huh. anyway thanks.</p>
<p>108, I was right there with you! Same issue/question with me this morning. I did however go ahead and get a PIN for myself and for DS.</p>
<p>The PINs are okay for 2011-12, right? Or do I have to wait until Jan. 1 for those also?</p>
<p>The PINs are OK forever. In fact, your student will use the same PIN for all of the Stafford loan “stuff”…so store that PIN in a SAFE PLACE. Parent PIN and student PIN will be used annually to complete the FAFSA. If you have other kids going to college in the future, that same parent PIN is used for all.</p>
<p>It’s super easy to look up your forgotten pin.</p>
