Summary: Availability of
the 2006-2007 Renewal FAFSA Process Guide
Posted on 09-08-2005
We are pleased to announce
the posting of the 2006-2007 Renewal FAFSA Process Guide on the U.S. Department
of Education's Federal Student Aid Download (FSAdownload) Web site, located at
http://fsadownload.ed.gov.
The Department of Education
is making several major changes to the renewal application process for the 2006-2007
cycle. The biggest change is that all renewal-eligible applicants will now use
the Web to reapply for aid because paper Renewal FAFSAs will no longer be printed
and mailed. All renewal-eligible applicants can access Renewal FAFSA on the
Web using their PIN to complete, sign, and submit a 2006-2007 Renewal FAFSA.
The 2006-2007 Renewal FAFSA
Process Guide provides useful information to financial aid administrators about
this change and other important enhancements for 2006-2007. A schedule of important
dates and samples of the Renewal Reminders that are sent to renewal-eligible
students are also provided in the guide.
