Attention High School Seniors! The opening of the 2024-2025 Access EXTRA Scholarship application has been delayed until March 15, 2024. This should give you time to complete your 2024-2025 FAFSA and receive your FAFSA Submission Summary which is required for the application.

ICYMI: Yesterday we released a preview of the student debt relief application form. Here's an important reminder from @WhiteHouse to follow @usedgov and @FAFSA for updates. 👇
Replying to @WhiteHouse46
Your best source of information during this process will be @usedgov and @FAFSA. The U.S. Department of Education and Federal Student Aid will notify borrowers once the application is available. The application will be on a .gov website.
