    • Please Note: FAFSA/TASFA graduation requirement takes multiple steps.  See details below

    The State of Texas requires that all graduating seniors submit an application for Financial Aid or submit a form to Opt-Out for submitting a financial aid application.

    There are three options to fulfill this graduation requirement:  1) Submit FAFSA, 2) Submit TASFA, or 3) Submit the Opt-Out form.

      What is FAFSA?

    • FAFSA® is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. By filling out the FAFSA® each year, you gain eligibility for grants, scholarships, loans, and work-study programs that are not available otherwise.
    • FAFSA should be submitted by students that are US Citizens, Permanent Residents, and eligible non-citizens.
    • Link to FAFSA Application

    What is TASFA?

    • TASFA stands for the Texas Application for State Financial Aid. It’s meant for students who are ineligible for federal aid through FAFSA® who are Texas residents and went to high school for at least three years in the state.
    • TASFA should be completed by DACA and undocumented students.
    • TASFA is submitted directly to the institution that the student plans to attend.
    • Link to TASFA Application

    Opting Out?

    • This means you are declining to complete a financial aid application. This must be signed by student (if 18), student and parent if student is under 18, or student and a counselor. Submitting this form does not mean you cannot file the FAFSA or TASFA in the future.
    • Online Opt-Out Form English
    • Online Opt-Out Form Spanish

    NOTE: The Class of 2026 students will complete the FAFSA or TASFA application for 2025-26 school year.  Out form.

     

     

    The Student MUST submit Evidence of Completion* of either FAFSA or TASFA OR the Opt-Out form.  This can be done through the document completion form link below. A hard copy of the Evidence of Completion can also be submitted in person to Mrs.Thompson-Bennett in the CCR Center in Room (M-401).
