West Virginia FAFSA Day
February 5, 2026
About
West Virginia FAFSA Day, scheduled for February 5, 2026, stands as a collaborative effort spearheaded by the West Virginia Higher Education Policy Commission, the West Virginia Community and Technical College System, College for West Virginia (CFWV), West Virginia GEAR UP, and West Virginia TRIO Association. This initiative aims to heighten awareness surrounding the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), underscoring its significance for both high school seniors and returning college students. Given the essential nature of FAFSA completion, the West Virginia FAFSA Day seeks to emphasize the FAFSA’s significance for accessing federal, state-sponsored, and collegiate financial aid programs.
West Virginia FAFSA Day serves as a pivotal occasion to stress the urgency of filing—offering high schools and institutions of higher education the opportunity to host activities aimed at helping students and their families navigate the application process. Through this campaign, West Virginia FAFSA Day endeavors to ensure that students seize the opportunity for postsecondary success by securing the financial assistance they need.
