Never tell anyone your FSA ID – not even your parent, 孩子, 学校官员, 或贷款公司代表. Remember, your FSA ID is your signature. 保护它!
创建您自己的FSA ID. Letting someone else create or use your FSA ID can cause problems or delays with your student aid. 永远不要为别人做FSA ID.
You'll use your FSA ID every year you fill out a FAFSA 和 for the lifetime of any loans. Take some time to create a memorable username, password, 和 answers to your "challenge questions." Keep your FSA ID in a safe place or memorize it.
One of your parents might need an FSA ID as well. If you need to provide information about your parents on the FAFSA, one of your parents will have to sign the application.

If you share an e-mail address with someone else, only one of you will be able to use that e-mail address to create an FSA ID. 例如, 如果你是一个独立的学生, 和 you 和 your mom share an e-mail address, one of you must use a different e-mail address when creating an FSA ID.

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) does not provide families with a place to explain special circumstances affecting their ability to pay for the student's education. The Federal Need Analysis Methodology (FM), which calculates a household's Estimated Family Contribution (EFC), is a rigid formula with no provisions for exceptions. 为了解决这个问题, Congress has delegated to the school's financial aid administrator(s) the authority to compensate for special circumstances on a case-by-case basis with adequate documentation. This authority is often referred to as a financial aid administrator's ability to make a "Professional Judgment."
If you believe that your tax return from two years prior (used for the FAFSA form) is not a good representation of your current financial situation, please complete the 特殊情况表格 below in its entirety.
