when to complete financial aid information (Fafsa etc)?

[cqs]

Hi guys! I have been accepted to a few schools for Fall 2022 but have not made a decision yet. When do I need to fill out the FAFSA/ any other financial aid forms? I luckily did not need to do this for undergrad so I am unfamiliar with the process. Thank you!

You can fill out the FAFSA at any time, and you can list each of the schools you were accepted to in the application. I am not sure if filling it out sooner increases your chances of receiving any financial aid, but I would still recommend doing it sooner rather than later if you can. I would check with each individual school to see when their priority deadline is. I filled mine out about a month ago and received an email from my school a few weeks later that it was received and I will hear back about any financial aid in March.
