For students starting in the fall of 2025, complete the 2025-2026 FAFSA.

The FAFSA provides Gordon with an assessment of your family’s financial strengths. Financial aid awards are based on information from the FAFSA.

Awards will be sent on a rolling basis to tell you how much aid you qualify for—including scholarships, grants, loans, and work-study.
