Submission of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is an essential step for all students seeking Federal, state, institutional, and private financial aid. To improve the financial aid process, the FAFSA Simplification Act was enacted by Congress on December 27, 2020. Its dual purpose is to make it easier for students and families to complete the FAFSA and to make the allocation of Federal student aid funds more equitable.
