If applying for Financial Aid is leaving you stressed, fear not! At Nichols College, we are committed to providing you with the most resources for financing a Nichols College education. We require only one financial aid form, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, better known as the FAFSA. Nichols College does not require the CSS Profile.
We use your FAFSA information to determine your eligibility for federal, state and institutional need-based financial aid. You can file your FAFSA anytime after January 1st, but we highly recommend you file by March 1st (our priority deadline). Each state has a FAFSA filing deadline. It is important to meet the March 1st filing deadline since filing your FAFSA late can affect the amount of financial aid you will receive. Late applicants may miss opportunities for state or other sources of aid.
Get the help you need! Explore information and access links to the FAFSA through the navigation bars on the lower right section of this page. Feel free to contact us anytime with your specific questions. We'll help take some of the mystery out of the financial aid application experience. Good Luck!
