DACA Students

  1. DACA students can use their SSN to complete FAFSA

  2. Important to not misrepresent your status & should select “No, I am not a US citizen or eligible non-citizen.”

  3. Students will receive a rejection letter because they do not qualify for aid. But can still use your EFC to show need for scholarships.
