Bridge 2 Life, in collaboration with Broward County Public Schools, Broward Education Foundation, University of Miami, Florida Atlantic University, and Broward College, will have early access to the 2025-2026 FAFSA starting on October 1. We are one of only six organizations nationwide to receive this early access opportunity.

 

Two things are required:

 

1. High school seniors, their parents/guardians, and first-time FAFSA applicants MUST create FSA IDs by September 20th to access the FAFSA application on October 1st. Attendance is required for the Zoom FSA ID prep session on September 19 so we can explain further. Register here.

​

2. Attendance will also be required for the in-person FAFSA workshop on October 1, from 6-8 pm at Stranahan High School. Hosted by Daniel Barkowitz from the University of Miami, you’ll receive both group and one-on-one step-by-step assistance to complete your FAFSA, and dinner will be provided. Be sure to register early as space is limited! Register here.

 

Support in Spanish and Creole will be available. 

 

$20 Amazon e-gift cards

(1 per family) will be issued for proof of FAFSA completion.

 

Let’s get Broward County youth into the financial aid process as quickly as possible!
