Forms 2024-2025

Fall 2024 - Spring 2025 - Summer 2025

The release of the 2024-2025 FAFSA is currently scheduled for the end of December 2023. In recent years, the FAFSA became available in October. This pushing back of the release came from the U.S. Department of Education and is connected to implementation of The FAFSA Simplification Act. Like most other institutions, Goucher College will not be publishing or processing any additional forms, appeals, or paperwork for the 2024-2025 academic year until the FAFSA has been officially released and any software and system processing updates have been implemented. Please bookmark this page and check back later, or contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
