Financial Aid FAQs

Can I update that on my FAFSA® if my family's financial situation has changed?


No, do not change your FAFSA®. If the tax information required on the FAFSA® does not reflect your current financial situation, you may be able to complete a Special Circumstance Petition. Contact the Financial Aid Office for details. You can reach them by phone at (208) 496-1411, email at financialaid@byui.edu, or in person at Kimball 196.

For more information on updating your FAFSA®, check out studentaid.gov.
