I know FAFSA is important for financial aid, but I'm not sure when Lehigh's deadline is for regular decision students. Does anyone have any details on this? Need to get my finances in order before applying.
The FAFSA becomes available each year on October 1 and Lehigh University follows the federal deadline of June 30 for the FAFSA submission. However, to prioritize your financial aid application, it's often recommended to submit the FAFSA as soon after October 1 as possible. It's also important to note that Lehigh's priority deadline for the submission of CSS Profile for Regular Decision applicants is February 1, so you should aim to also complete your FAFSA by this date to ensure all your financial aid materials are received simultaneously.
Bear in mind that financial aid is awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, so the earlier you apply, the better. Make sure you have all your necessary financial documents gathered when you sit down to complete the FAFSA to streamline the process!
