FAFSA and Other Forms

The 2026-2027 FAFSA is now available. This is a required part of the 2026-2027 financial aid application process and must be received before we can provide a financial aid offer.

If you have successfully submitted the FAFSA, it will be "satisfied" on your requirement list in DartHub. The Financial Aid Office may contact you if there are corrections that need to be made to your FAFSA. The Department of Education has provided guidance on making corrections.

If you are having technical troubles completing the FAFSA, please contact Federal Student Aid for assistance.

For U.S. citizens or permanent residents, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is the only form required to apply for federal financial aid, grants, and loans. The other forms listed below are required to apply for Dartmouth scholarship funds and loans.

A Note about Sending Documents Directly to the Office

Confidential information, including personally identifiable information (PII), should not be transmitted via email without encryption.  Dartmouth has contracted with the College Board to offer a secure upload for US Citizens and Permanent Residents to submit application information through IDOC.  If you are sending sensitive information directly to the office please mail the documents, or provide the documents via encrypted application (i.e., Winzip) with password protection.  The password to open any encrypted documents should be sent via separate email.
