We are pleased to announce the launch of a new Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) processing enhancement that enables real-time FAFSA results for students and provides immediate visibility of processed Institutional Student Information Records (ISIRs) for financial aid administrators in the FAFSA Partner Portal.
What’s Changing for Students
As of May 31, 2026, students and contributors who sign and submit an initial application or correction of a 2025–26 or 2026–27 FAFSA form will receive their FAFSA Submission Summary in real-time. This means that students will be able to view their confirmed Student Aid Index, Federal Pell Grant eligibility information, and any comment or reject codes immediately upon submission.
