You may have completed the wrong FAFSA®

The FAFSA® is based on the academic year, not the semester you start. The academic year begins in the Fall and continues through the Winter and Spring semesters.

Many BYU-Idaho students who start in Winter accidentally complete the next year’s FAFSA® because the new FAFSA® opens in October and is highlighted on the FAFSA® website. If you completed the upcoming FAFSA® instead of the current academic year's FAFSA®, your aid will be delayed.
