Education Department releases 2027-28 FAFSA form early
Original: Education Department releases 2027-28 FAFSA early, giving students a head start
The US Department of Education has released the 2027-28 FAFSA application ahead of its usual schedule, giving students and families extra time to apply for federal financial aid. The early launch is meant to give applicants a head start on securing grants, loans and work-study funds for college. Education advocates have long pushed for smoother, earlier FAFSA rollouts after past delays disrupted aid planning.
Why now: An early FAFSA release matters to students and families planning college financing, and follows recent problems with delayed FAFSA launches.
