I'm planning out all my deadlines for next year, and I want to make sure I have the FAFSA deadline correct. I know the deadline is on March 2nd, but what time exactly is it due? I just want to make sure I won't miss the deadline.
The FAFSA deadline on March 2nd refers to the state deadline for certain states, like California. The specific deadline time is 11:59 PM Central Time (CT) on March 2nd. It's always a good idea to submit your FAFSA earlier rather than waiting until the last minute, so you have time to resolve any potential issues and ensure you are considered for the maximum amount of financial aid available. Keep in mind that some states and colleges may have their own deadlines, so it's important to double-check those as well. Good luck with your FAFSA submission!
