FAFSA Log In Sheet
When you have kids in college, you are required to fill out the FAFSA every year. That means you need to keep track of your Federal Student Aid Log In information. Make it easier on yourself with the FAFSA Log In Sheet!
FAFSA stands for Free Application For Federal Student Aid. It is the application students fill out to determine their financial aid eligibility for college. It may include grants, scholarships, work-study, and loans.
A parent will also need an FSA ID in order to help their students complete their application.
Each new log in requires an FSA ID, Password, and Save Key + 4 Security Questions.
That makes a lot of log in information to keep track of.
FAFSA Log In Sheet
My husband worked with my daughter last year to fill out the FAFSA. This year, I decided to help my daughter and son tackle the process and found a piece of paper with all of their log in information written in a very disorganized, messy manner.
I couldn’t take it!
They now each have their very own Federal Student Aid Log In 411 to help streamline the application process for their remaining years of college!
How To Use The Federal Student Aid Log In Sheet

Information You Will Need To Fill Out The FAFSA
There seems to be a lot of dread around filling out the FAFSA. I gotta say, if you have your information in order, it really isn’t all that bad.
Here is the information you will need for both the student and parents:
- Social Security Number
- Federal Income Tax Returns
- W2’s
- Any income not reported on your tax return
- Total cash currently on hand
- Total investments amount
Go ahead … you can do it!
