Last night we started the soft launch of the 2024-25 FAFSA® form.
During the soft launch, we will make the form available for periods of time over the coming days while we monitor site performance and respond to any potential issues. We will also be initiating pauses to the site, during which time the form will not be available while we conduct site maintenance.
Students and families will have ample time to complete the 2024-25 FAFSA and do not need to rush to fill out the form immediately during the soft launch. If you visit the site during a pause, check back later to access the form. 
Visit https://t.co/4CKN2C1ymG for more information on what to expect during the soft launch.
Leading up to and as part of the soft launch, we have identified some minor issues affecting user experience. We are aware of these issues and are working to resolve them. For additional questions or to report an issue, please contact us here: https://t.co/TIpMseLSjC
