You are so on top of things for only being a junior!!! You actually won鈥檛 be able to file the FAFSA until October 1st of your senior year, so you have some time. You should do it as soon as it opens up though, because I heard the money can run out over time. I submitted the FAFSA this October (2019) and it was nice to get it out of the way early so that I could focus on the rest of my applications in Oct, Nov, and Dec.

Easiest way for me to submit was online here:
