2026-2027 FAFSA Reminder for Returning Ohio Wesleyan Students

Dear Ohio Wesleyan University Parents and Students, As we approach the spring semester, a new academic year will be right around the corner! We wanted to send a friendly reminder about the importance of renewing your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The 2026-2027 FAFSA will become available on October 1, 2025. Key Information & What You Can Do Now:

  • FAFSA Go-Live Date: The 2026-2027 FAFSA will be available on October 1, 2025.
  • Priority Filing Deadline: The priority deadline for returning Ohio Wesleyan students is March 15, 2026.
  • OWU School Code: Our school code is 003109. You will need this to send your information to us.
  • Prior-Prior Year Tax Information: The FAFSA will use your 2024 tax information. It’s helpful to have this readily available.
  • FSA ID: Both the student and one parent (the “contributor”) must have an FSA ID to complete and sign the FAFSA. If you’ve forgotten yours, you can retrieve it on the StudentAid.gov website.

While you have until March 15 to complete the FAFSA, we encourage you to file it as soon as you’re able to. If you have any questions or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the Ohio Wesleyan Financial Aid Office. Sincerely, The Ohio Wesleyan University Financial Aid Office
