Application Guide
How do I apply – Completing a FAFSA application?
If you have never applied for federal student loans, the first step is to complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). You must list Bond University as one of your preferred schools. Once processed you should print your Student Aid Report (SAR) from the FAFSA website.
The Financial Aid Office receives this information in an electronic format. You will receive a SAR or similar electronic document called an ISIR which details eligibility and calculates your Effective Family Contribution (EFC). Bond University requires you to send your SAR and/or SAR Print summary directly to us before your application can progress any further. See Documents you must submit to Bond University.
If you applied for federal student loans last year, you may qualify to use a Renewal FAFSA. Renewal FAFSAs are available on the FAFSA website between November and December each year. They have fewer questions to answer because you only need to update information that has changed since you last applied.
