The Tennessee Higher Education Commission (THEC) has designated March 31 – April 4, 2025, as “Finish the FAFSA Week.” This initiative urges all high school seniors and their families to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) before April 15 to maintain eligibility for up to two years of tuition-free college through the Tennessee Promise program.
Completing the FAFSA is crucial for making college more affordable. Students who submit the FAFSA are more likely to enroll in higher education, persist in their studies, and earn a degree or credential.
If you have questions or are feeling overwhelmed with the FAFSA process, THEC is here to help. Call the THEC FAFSA Hotline at 1-800-342-1663 or visit CollegeforTN.org for FAFSA completion assistance.
