Financial Aid Required Applications

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) must be filed in order to apply for any federal and state financial aid programs at The College at Brockport.

How do I apply?
You are encouraged to file your FAFSA electronically at www.fafsa.ed.gov

Instructions for filing the FAFSA on the Internet

(Click here for html text version of instructions)

Prospective students may obtain the FAFSA from the high school or the college they plan to attend. Returning students are encouraged to file via the Web with their PIN.

What is a PIN?

The PIN is your identifier to let you access your personal information in various U.S. Department of Education systems and serves as your electronic signature.

When do I apply?

The deadline is February 15 for new or summer students and March 15 for returning students.
Any supplemental forms requested by our office should be submitted by May 1. Student applicants meeting this deadline should have their financial aid package prior to the admissions deposit deadline or before summer school begins. Applications or forms filed after these deadlines will continue to be processed on a first-come, first-served basis until funds are exhausted.

New York State Application for the Tuition Assistance Program:

If you are a New York state resident, you are eligible to file the TAP application if you included a New York school in "Step Six" of your FAFSA.
The application link is available after you have submitted the Web FAFSA. If you miss the link, you may either go to the TAP on the Web or wait for the application to be sent.
Students applying for TAP for the first time will need to return the preprinted form with required signatures and Social Security Number(s). HESC will process returned ETA forms and issue award certificates or additional follow-up requests.
The deadline for TAP is May 1 of the academic year for which aid is sought (Example: for 2006-2007, application deadline is May 1, 2007).

Proof of high school graduation requirement:

*Is required for all students wishing to receive federal or state financial aid.

*A final high school transcript showing date of graduation or a copy of a Graduate Equivalency Diploma (GED) must be sent to the Office of Undergraduate Admissions as soon as possible to facilitate the financial aid process.

*Financial aid funds cannot be disbursed unless we have received proof of your high school graduation.
