Update on 2024-2025 FAFSA
The U.S. Department of Education has announced that FAFSA data will not be released to colleges and universities until mid-March. This means that OLLU will not be able to begin creating financial aid packages until late March or possibly early April. All colleges and universities are experiencing this same delay. It was caused by the launch of the new, simplified FAFSA form.
If you have not yet completed your FAFSA, you are strongly encouraged to do so now. The FAFSA is available at http://www.studentaid.gov.
For additional information on the new FAFSA, view the OLLU FAQ page.
