We award financial aid on a first-come, most-in-need basis.

  • To maximize your financial aid, submit your form as soon as possible. Late submissions may qualify for a Federal Pell Grant or Direct Loan, but FLC's need-based aid may be unavailable.
  • to confirm your identity and so you can sign Federal Student Aid documents electronically. A parent will also need to create an FSA ID to sign the FAFSA if they are contributing to the application.
  • You’ll receive an email confirmation from the Department of Education that includes your SAI and Pell Grant eligibility (if applicable) upon completing the FAFSA.
  • Once you have received your SAI number, fill out our  to get the best possible estimate.
  • We'll process your financial aid packages the first full week in May.

*The application for Fall 2024 and Spring 2025 financial aid would typically open on Oct. 1, but this year, it opened in January. The Department of Education warns that the FAFSA will occasionally be unavailable. The intermittent outages will be used to make improvements.

  • FAFSA and Financial Aid Reconsideration Form

    Significant changes in this year's FAFSA formula have affected many students. To support you, we have made additional institutional aid available for those who may have lost Pell Grant eligibility due to these changes.

    If you received a Pell Grant last year but did not get one for the coming year, please submit this form. The FLC Financial Aid Team will review your information and try to adjust your award if your income hasn't changed much. Allow 3-5 business days for review. We may contact you with additional questions.

CAFSA application - the FAFSA alternative for undocumented students

Financial aid for undocumented students

The Colorado ASSET Bill allows undocumented students to be considered for financial aid from the state of Colorado. Students must complete the Colorado Application for State Financial Aid (CASFA) to be considered.

*ASSET Students do not need to complete the FAFSA application.

FAFSA Information Release

You can give permission to Fort Lewis College to release information regarding your student education records, including financial aid information from your FAFSA record. 

Student Aid Index (SAI), formerly Expected Family Contribution (EFC)

Students must show "financial need" to receive federal, state, and private financial aid. When a student completes the FAFSA, the Federal Department of Education uses a formula to determine a student's Student Aid Index (formerly the Expected Family Contribution). The Financial Aid Office uses your SAI number to determine your eligibility for different types of financial aid.

Calculating your financial need


Cost of Attendance (COA) - Student Aid Index = Financial Need
 


Need-based aid is financial aid you can receive if you have financial need and meet other eligibility criteria. You can't accept more need-based aid than the amount of your financial need.

The following are examples of federal need-based student aid programs:

The following are examples of federal non-need-based student aid programs:
