FAFSA Tips
- There’s no income cut-off to qualify for federal student aid. Many factors besides income—from the size of your family to the age of your older parent—are taken into account.
- You can file your FAFSA starting October 1 at fafsa.gov. Students whose FAFSA is received by February 1 receive priority aid consideration.
- Be sure to list Western Oregon’s federal school code 003209.
