FAFSA Questions

<p>I am planning on going to a community college in January and was wondering if I needed to fill out the FAFSA now or wait until January 1st? I went ahead and filled it out last night and submitted it just in case. I will be a first time student and I graduated from high school in 2012 any help/guidance would be appreciated thanks!</p>

<p>Yes, if you are starting school this January, you should file the 2013-14 fafsa as you have done. After Jan 1, you would file the 2014-15 fafsa for fall 2014 and spring 2015.</p>
