Applying for Financial Aid


To apply, students are required to file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), which is online at https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa. When you file the FAFSA on the Web, you will be directed to a TAP application used to apply for state aid. The York College federal code is 004759 and the state code is 1418.

To expedite the application, you and your parents should request a Federal Student Aid ID (FSA ID) at https://studentaid.gov/. A FSA ID is comprised of a username and password. The FSA ID is an electronic signature used to sign the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form, loan promissory notes and other legal documents. Parents without a Social Security Number can also create a FSA ID.
