FAFSA Priority Filing Deadline for 2008-2009


We can not overemphasize the extreme importance of completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or Renewal FAFSA as soon as possible after the first of the year, (perferably before February 1) regardless of whether you completed your 2007 IRS income tax return, (see question 32 and 72 on the FAFSA form).

The priority filing date for Hampton University is March 1, 2008 for all students. To qualify as a priority filer, we must be in receipt of your Student Aid Report (SAR), including a valid Expected Family Contribution (EFC), by March 1, 2008.* can submit. We recommend that you submit the FAFSA via the Web at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Please allow 6-8 weeks for processing of your application.

Providing that you do meet the priority filing deadline, entering freshmen can expect to receive your financial aid offer notice by April 15. All continuing students can expect to receive your offer notice no later then July 15.

*Please note that we can not guarantee grant aid beyond the Federal Pell due to budget funding restrictions.
