Fall 2014 is still months away, but that doesn't mean you can put off thinking about your financial aid for the new school year.

Ready to get started? Fill out the FAFSA now.

Texas Wesleyan’s priority deadline for FAFSA applications is March 1. The earlier you turn it in, the more access you have to state and federal grants — a.k.a. money you don’t have to repay.

You can still turn it in after March 1, but you’ll risk giving up free money for your education. Is that a gamble you’re willing to take?

Grab your W-2 and your tax return (your parents' tax return, too) and get started on your application today. You can’t afford not to.
