Nicholls FAFSA Night: 

​

The Office of Financial Aid at Nicholls State University will host a FAFSA Night on Tuesday, December 7, 2021 from 5 - 7pm in the computer lab of the Ellender Memorial Library.  Space is limited.  Students must RSVP by close of business November 30, 2021 to reserve their time slot.  Students can submit their RSVP here  

 

In an effort to help as many students as possible, please try to have your seniors create their FSA ID prior to coming on December 7.  

 

We are willing to help all students complete their FAFSA, even those not attending Nicholls.  Please encourage your students to take advantage of this opportunity.  If you or your students have any questions, please have them contact our office at 985.448.4048.  

 

It is necessary to submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) in order to be considered for most federal financial aid programs. Many state financial aid programs and various scholarships also require the submission of the FAFSA. The Department of Education processes the FAFSA and notifies applicant with the Student Aid Report (SAR). The FAFSA can be submitted online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.

​

The FAFSA can be submitted online at www.fafsa.ed.gov or you can obtain a paper form from your guidance counselor or by calling 1-800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243). If you are hearing-impaired and have questions, contact the TTY line at 1-800-730-8913.

The following information will help you complete the FAFSA. Please note that the financial documents should be for two years prior to the academic year of which you’re applying.

Example: If you’re applying for aid for the 2021-22 school year, you will need information from 2020.
