Join Kent State University's Office of Scholarships & Financial Aid virtually to get all the financial aid information that you'll need for the upcoming year! During the session, we will go over the steps to complete the 26/27 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and discuss the financial aid process in general. We will also go over the types of financial aid including information about scholarships, grants, loans and federal work-study. After the main presentation, there will be time for Q&A.

The Financial, Billing and Enrollment Center at the Kent Campus is offering in-person walk-in FAFSA assistance to students in October. The FAFSA for the 2026-2027 year opens officially on October 1 for all students. Be sure to make plans to file your FAFSA as soon as possible and stop by for walk-in assistance if you need help.

This is the FAFSA for students who plan to enroll in Summer 2026, Fall 2026, and Spring 2027 terms.
