Students are experiencing difficulties accessing the FAFSA 2025-2026 form. The FAFSA website is currently experiencing high traffic, which is causing slowdowns and occasional unavailability. The Federal Student Aid office is aware of the issue and is working to resolve it as quickly as possible.
Why is the FAFSA Website Down?
The FAFSA website is still online but is very slow due to the high volume of traffic. This issue has occurred in previous years as well, often due to the rendering of JavaScript files. The Federal Student Aid website developers are working to address these recurring problems.
When to Submit the FAFSA Form:
- The federal government accepts FAFSA forms from December 1, 2024, through June 30, 2026.
- Many US universities and scholarships may require that a FAFSA be submitted sooner. Check the submission due dates with FAFSA before clicking ‘submit’.
- File the FAFSA as soon as applications open to maximize your chances of receiving aid.
How to Submit the FAFSA Form:
1. Online Submission:
- Create an account at [StudentAid.gov](https://studentaid.gov).
- Obtain an FSA ID (assigned when creating the account).
- Log in to apply when the application becomes available.
2. Paper Submission:
- Complete a FAFSA PDF form, print it out, and mail it for processing.
FAFSA Feedback:
If you encounter issues with the FAFSA website or form availability, it is helpful to let the Federal Student Aid office know. This feedback can help improve the services for both current and future applicants.
Important Dates:
- - The FAFSA form for the 2025-2026 academic year will be available to all students on or before December 1, 2024.
