Seniors & Senior parents/guardians: the 2026-2027 FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) and WASFA (Washington Application for State Financial Aid) is OPEN for you to fill out! The FAFSA & WASFA can help pay for college, trade schools, and some apprenticeship programs. Not sure which one to apply for? This information will help you determine which one is right for you.
- There is no income cut-off to file the FAFSA/WASFA or receive federal/state aid;
- If you didn't file your 2024 taxes, no problem! You can still complete the FAFSA or WASFA;
- Submitting the FAFSA/WASFA form as early as possible is highly recommended because some types of financial aid are limited and awarded on a first-come, first-served basis;
- If you would like help filling out your FAFSA or WASFA, schedule a meeting with Kaylene, our College & Career Readiness Advisor; she would love to help you!
Also, save the date: CHS is hosting Financial Aid & Scholarship Night on November 5th- we look forward to seeing you there!
