Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)

All students who apply for financial assistance must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). University academic scholarship recipients must also complete the FAFSA. When completing the FAFSA, Fisk University must be listed as one of the applicant’s University choices. Fisk University’s Department of Education code number is 003490. This number must be provided on the FAFSA for Fisk to receive your application.

The deadline for FAFSA is March 15; however, the application process may start as early as October 1^st of the previous year.

After the FAFSA application has been processed and the student has requested that Fisk University receive the FAFSA data, Fisk University’s Office of Student Financial Aid will receive the Student Aid Report (SAR) results via computer through the U.S. Department of Education's Electronic Data Exchange Program.

Applicants may be requested to provide additional information to support the application. Such additional requested material is considered a part of the financial aid process, and the process is considered complete only after all materials have been received. It is recommended that all requested documentation be promptly provided to assure continued consideration of the application while funds are available.
