<p>If you didn't apply for financial aid for freshman year, would you still be eligible for it sophomore year if you needed it?</p>
<p>depends on the school- better ask- it never hurts</p>
<p>upperclassmen must reapply for finaid each year - new/update FAFSA, new forms, etc. - usually deadline is something like mid-April - a bit later than the incoming freshmen. If your financial situation shows a need - you would be considered.</p>
<p>Everyone needs to re-apply every year. Even those who got it as freshmen, still need to submit FAFSA, tax forms etc. Similarly, those who did not get aid, and have a change of circumstances, can apply next year.</p>
