Resources & Information
FAFSA stands for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. It is a form provided by the U.S. Department of Education that may be filled out by current and prospective college students (undergraduate and graduate) to determine their eligibility for student financial aid. It is the first step in applying for most federal, state and college-provided financial aid for students — not just federal student aid, as the name might imply.
Nearly every student may be eligible for some form of financial aid. Students who may not be eligible for need-based aid may still be eligible for an unsubsidized Stafford Loan regardless of income or circumstance. Once the FAFSA application is completed and filed, a federal processor will examine all the information and pass the results on to the financial aid offices at the preferred colleges listed on the FAFSA.
The FAFSA form is often more than 100 questions long and can seem daunting, but it isn’t really—and the helpful financial aid experts at Provo College can help you every step of the way.
Even if you think you may not be eligible, we encourage everyone to apply. The sooner you submit your FAFSA, the more financial aid options you may have!

Since your financial circumstances may change, you must submit the FAFSA each year to remain eligible for financial aid. Most of your information, however, may carry over from the previous year’s FAFSA.
Yes, books and other necessary fees may be covered with your financial aid.
Financial aid may cover anything that falls under the cost of attendance, including room and board (on or off-campus).
If you leave school, you enter a six-month grace period. During this time, you do not have to make payments on your federal student loans. Your interest builds up and is added to your principal balance at the end of your grace period. After six months, your loan moves to a Student Repayment Plan.
