Your FAFSA Pathfinder

Complete the new and improved FAFSA now! When you fill it out using our school code (002279), we’ll be able to determine how much financial aid you’re eligible to receive.  

Finances won’t stand in your way

Regardless of income, any student who wants to be considered for federal, state, and institutional financial aid programs – including grants, scholarships, work-study,

and loans – should complete the FAFSA.

1. Prepare for the process

Before you begin, there are a couple of things you can do to prepare. 

First, you and your parent(s) will each need to register for your own FSA ID using social security numbers (SSN) and unique email addresses. Learn more about creating your account(s).

Next, gather the information and documents you’ll need handy while filling out the FAFSA – like SSNs, tax returns, and driver’s license numbers. See the list here.

 2. Fill out the FAFSA

When you’re ready, log into fafsa.gov to fill out the 2024-25 FAFSA. It takes most people less than one hour. 

Use our school code: 002279

This ensures that our financial aid office receives the results of your FAFSA.

3. Apply to make magic happen

If you haven’t already, submit your application to LTU! It’s easy to apply. Test scores and essays are optional. Plus, you’ll be automatically considered for up to $16,000 in merit scholarships and receive an admission decision within two weeks.

Our financial aid office will use the information you provided on your FAFSA to determine your eligibility. In April, you’ll receive a financial aid offer, including details about need-based grants, work-study, and federal loans.
