For federal student loans, students must fill out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Be sure to include the FAFSA school code for Teachers College (TC): G03979.
The Financial Aid Office provides counseling and assistance with completing the financial aid application, evaluation, and determination of need.
