2026-27 FAFSA Updates

The U.S. Department of Education is making technical changes to the file layout for the 2026-27 FAFSA. As a result, there will be temporary delays in how universities receive and process FAFSA information starting on April 26, 2026. Our student information system is being updated to accept the new file layout and we will continue processing 2026-27 FAFSA as soon as we are able. If you've submitted a 26-27 FAFSA recently and would like confirmation of completion, please feel free to contact our office via phone at 319-273-2700 or email fin-aid@uni.edu and our team will review your questions.
