Did I do this wrong? All the dates say that the FAFSA is open on Oct 1st but I submitted it a month beforehand without meaning to. Will that affect anything?
For which academic year do you want to apply for financial aid?
The 2018-2019 FAFSA has been available since October 1, 2017. Use this version for the 2018-2019 academic year. The 2019-2020 FAFSA will become available on October 1, 2018.
I’m a senior in high school right now and I’ll graduate in 2019. I think I’m supposed to file for Oct 1, 2018? I’m not sure so please help me along.
Okay, I figured it out. I submitted the wrong year when I should’ve waited until Oct 1, 2018 for the 19-20 application. Apparently this has happened a lot so I just have to wait until Oct 1, 2018. Thank you for clarifying.
No, you didn’t. You filed 2018. Nothing will happen with that application.
