It’s that time of year again - time for incoming students and UC Berkeley Golden Bears to start the FAFSA application! FAFSA has gone through some updates, leading to a more streamlined application and more students being eligible for financial aid. The deadline to apply for FAFSA for the 2024-25 school year is June 30, 2025. UPDATE as of 3/26: May 2nd is the priority deadline for state funding, and if aid is factoring into choosing what school to attend, we recommend submitting by March 2nd. #fafsa #financialaid #admissions #ucberkeley #berkeleylife #financialeducation #classof2028 #goldenbears #ucberkeleylife #fafsasimplificationact
