Does the FAFSA on the web have advantages over the paper FAFSA?
Yes. The FAFSA on the web guides you through the application and assists you in providing the right responses. Consequently, there are little or no errors with this method and, therefore, no delays in processing your student aid. We recommend that you have your (and your parents’, if applicable) tax returns ready when you complete the FAFSA, electronically or otherwise.
