fafsa calendar information

Beginning on Oct. 1, 2016, students will be able to fill out the FAFSA for the 2017–18 school year. (In the past, they had to wait until January 1). In addition, applicants will no longer need to estimate income and tax information and will be able to retrieve their data directly from the IRS, right from the first day the FAFSA is available. Students also will have information about their Expected Family Contributions earlier, helping them as they’re going through the college application and selection process.

The Future of Academic Record Practices: A CLR/LER Community of Practice Event

November 3, 2022

November 3, 2022 | 1:00-2:00 pm ET

With support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, AACRAO has convened a CLR/LER Community of Practice to advance knowledge and best practices around Comprehensive Learner Records and Learning and Employment Records within higher education institutions.  Within our efforts to ensure that our member's voices are heard within these conversations, AACRAO has been at the forefront of leading industry conversations and forging strategic partnerships, such as the Credentials Future Coalition, to guide the knowledge and insights that our members need to implement these tools on campus successfully. 

Take advantage of this opportunity to hear from AACRAO leaders who will share insights from these conversations and frame how the CLR/LER are not just mere buzzwords of the moment but are the future of academic record practices.
