So I Was wondering if I can apply for FAFSA again this Spring semester even though I’ve already applied for it in August? I got 700$ then for the one class that I was taking and I recently enrolled in two other classes that I’m taking online Starting in January. Thank you in advance, sorry I’m new to all this.
The fafsa is good for the entire year. Your school will award money per term based on the credits tak3n.
So do I need to apply for it again or is the return automatic based on the classes I take?
You file your FAFSA by the school year. For example, the school year 2015-2016 is July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016. If you attend school during 7/1/15 to 6/30/16, your financial aid will be determine by the FAFSA 2015-2016. Finally, you file the FAFSA once and follow by up to 15 corrections.
You don’t file the FAFSA again.
BUT you can go to your college and ask them if you are able to get any additional aid.
When you were taking only one course, you were enrolled far less than 1/2 time and may not have gotten any need based aid…at all. Three courses should put you above the 1/2 time enrollment point.
I’m curious…what was the $700 in aid you received for taking only one course. Most schools give no need based aid for a student taking only one course.
I’ll contact the school, I took a Spanish class the tuition was 444$ and the books were 350$
And what I’m asking is…what was the aid? Was it a grant from the school? What was it???
Yes it was from the school
A grant from the school?
You need to contact the school. Make an appointment to speak to a financial aid officer. See if you are able to,get additional funds now that you are taking more courses.
Don’t be surprised if the answer is no.
