Federal loan limits may be changing, which may impact how much students can borrow in the future. Your FAFSA itself will not change, but your loan eligibility may be affected depending on when your loans are disbursed. If you submit your FAFSA by July 1st, you will fall under the current loan benefits, and the potential limits should not impact your loan. We recommend contacting our Financial Aid office for personalized and accurate information.
