The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) will be available a full three months earlier for the 2017-18 academic year in a new process known as Prior-Prior Year (PPY).

Here’s what you will need to know about Prior-Prior Year (PPY):

  • On September, 14, 2015, President Obama announced significant changes to the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
  • The FAFSA will be available earlier (October 1 rather than January 1)
  • For students attending college July 1, 2017–June 30, 2018 students will be able to file the FAFSA on October 1, 2016, using 2015 income tax data
  • All new and current (undergraduate and graduate) students must file the FAFSA on an annual basis. Prior Prior Year does NOT mean that it covers multiple application years.

ÌÇÐÄÆÆ½â°æâ€™s Office of Student Financial Services is looking forward to ensuring a successful transition to Prior Prior Year (PPY).
