Priority Deadline for Financial Aid: May 1, 2015

The NBC Financial Aid office is instituting a priority deadline for students using financial aid. Students will need to complete the 2015-2016 FAFSA application by May 1, 2015. NBC will accept late applications, but students who apply by May 1, 2015 will receive priority assistance.

Get Ready to Apply - FAFSA TIPS:

  • The FAFSA is Free
    • If you are asked to pay for your application, you are on the wrong website.
    • The Federal FAFSA website is www.FAFSA.ed.gov.
  • File Your Taxes Before You Start
    • Students who estimate their income are more likely to be chosen for verification.
    • If you are a dependent student – make sure your parents have also filed their taxes!
  • Know Your PIN
    • PIN is the 4 digit number you used to e-sign your FAFSA last year.
    • Don't know your PIN or need help getting one? You can get help at the following website: www.pin.ed.gov
  • Use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool
    • It's designed to make the process faster and easier. It's on the Financial Information Tab of the FAFSA.
    • It will be available 1-2 weeks after electronically filing your taxes or 6-8 weeks after you file if you are using a paper tax return.
    • Bonus: you don't need to provide tax information if you're selected for verification.
