Dear JON,
This is to remind you that if you have not already applied for federal student aid for the 2008-2009 school year, you can do so now using the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on the Web. To apply online, either select the link below or copy the entire link and paste it into the address or location line of your Web browser:
www.fafsa.ed.gov/FOTWWebApp/complete013.jsp
You may also use the FAFSA to apply for aid from other sources, such as your state or school. Check important state deadlines at
www.fafsa.ed.gov under the "Before Beginning a FAFSA" link. Check with your school's financial aid office for information about school deadlines.
You will need your Federal Student Aid PIN to access your 2008-2009 FAFSA on the Web application that is pre-filled with much of your application data from last year.
If you have forgotten your PIN, you can request a duplicate by going to
www.pin.ed.gov and selecting "Request a Duplicate PIN." You may select one of the following delivery methods: view an online display of your PIN; receive an e-mail with your PIN; or receive your PIN by U.S. postal mail. If you select postal mail, you will receive your PIN by mail within 7-10 days after requesting it.
Remember, your PIN gives you access to your personal information on the Web and also allows you to sign student aid documents electronically. To protect the confidentiality of your application data, you should never share your PIN with anyone, even if that person is helping you to complete your FAFSA.
If you have questions about your FAFSA, online help is available at
www.fafsa.ed.gov. You can also contact the Federal Student Aid Information Center at 1-800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243) and a customer service representative can assist you.
Thank You,
U.S. Department of Education
