Despite the challenges of the new FAFSA form, the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships (OFA) was able to award more students more dollars than ever before. The OFA paid out $43 million to over 8,000 students last week. In addition, there has been a $2 million increase in need-based aid compared to the previous year.
2024-25 FAFSA forms are still being accepted. Students can go to Federal Student Aid to unlock every dollar at Wichita State. Students who need the OFA can go to the office for walk-ins from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. throughout August in 203 Jardine Hall.
