FAFSA/Financial Aid
While the 2024–2025 FAFSA is open for students and families to complete, there will now be a delay in the information sent to colleges and universities. The U.S. Department of Education predicts it won’t begin sending students' FAFSA information to colleges and universities until the middle of March. This will delay Rhode Island College’s, as well as many higher education institutions', ability to award financial aid to new and returning students.
