Financial Aid Application Procedure


Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) on the Web online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. When the student completes the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid), Hunter College should be included among the colleges to which the application information is reported. When the FAFSA is processed, CUNY will receive an electronic record of the student’s application information. The student may be required to provide additional documentation to the Office of Financial Aid to verify the application information or to clarify any discrepancies in the application.

New York State resident students can apply for both federal and New York State aid during a single on-line session. After completing FAFSA on the Web, New York State residents are able to link to the TAP on the Web Form, which is pre-filled with their FAFSA data.
