You can complete the federal aid process electronically and save up to three weeks in processing time. Simply follow the steps in either option 1 or 2 to electronically file for your federal aid.
Option 1: File online
1. Get a PIN (Personal Identification Number)
If you have not received a PIN from the federal government, you can request one electronically at http://www.pin.ed.gov/. Your PIN serves as an electronic signature. If you must use parent information, your parent also needs a PIN. Your parent will follow the same process for getting their PIN.
2. Complete your FAFSA online
Once you have your PIN and your 2007 federal tax returns are complete, you can file online at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/. Online processing results take five days, which saves you up to three weeks in processing time. Our school code is 002544.
