We started by delivering private student loan options to students and families - but we've graduated to do much more. Explore Nelnet Bank's Tools and Resources.

On Wednesday the House Education and the Workforce Committee advanced a bill by a vote of 34-6 that would officially require the Department of Education (ED) to make the annual FAFSA form available to students on October 1.

The House Appropriations Committee, in a marathon mark-up session on Wednesday, advanced Republicans’ fiscal year 2025 bill for the Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies, which would bring significant cuts to programs that provide financial assistance to students pursuing postsecondary education.

To commemorate the year we've had implementing FAFSA simplification, NASFAA members are welcome to purchase their own "ISIRvived" t-shirts. T-shirts are available through a third-party vendor for purchase through the end of August.
