Hello Future Northwestern College graduates!
This is a reminder that the 2014-2015 FAFSA is available for you to file. You don't need to file your 2013 Federal Income Tax Return prior to filing your FAFSA. You may use estimated information in order to file by March 1. You can then go back later, when your taxes are complete, and update this information.
Steps to successfully completing the FAFSA:
- Request a PIN at www.pin.ed.gov (only if you do not already have one)
- Complete and file the 2014-2015 FAFSA or Renewal at www.fafsa.ed.gov
- The federal school code for Northwestern College: 012362
**Illinois Residents - To ensure that you meet the deadline for the Illinois MAP Grant, you are strongly encouraged to complete your 2014-2015 FAFSA by the March 1 priority filing date.**
Be sure to contact your Financial Aid Representative if you have any questions or if you need any assistance with completing the application or simply click on the following link for additional help: Understanding the FAFSA.
