JHUSON Student Aid Application
The applicant's dependency status determines whose
financial information must be reported on the application. Independent
students must report their and, if married, their spouse's income and
assets. All graduate students are independent.
Dependent students must report their parents' income and
assets as well as their own. A dependent student is typically under the age
of 24, unmarried, and has no dependants. The School of Nursing follows the
federal definition of dependency status in awarding institutional funds. A
student entering the program as a dependent student will remain in that
status throughout their undergraduate studies at the school. Note that
additional documentation may be requested in order to clarify the
applicant's financial status.

Federal Student Aid
Complete your FAFSA online by using
FAFSA on the Web.
You will need a
Personal Identification Number (PIN) to electronically sign and submit
your FAFSA. Parents of dependent students must also have a pin.
Before filing out the online FAFSA, we encourage you to complete the
FAFSA on the Web Worksheet. The worksheet will allow you to read and
complete the questions before entering your information online.
If you have not completed your 2007 federal income tax return you can use
estimated data to complete the FAFSA. However, when you file your tax
return, you must update any income or tax information that changed since you
filed your FAFSA.
Pay particular attention to the following sections when completing your
FAFSA:
- Step 1 question #31 - DO NOT LEAVE THIS QUESTION BLANK. If you have
NEVER been convicted of an offense, fill in the "no" oval.
- Step 2 (student) questions #40-42 - Carefully review the instructions
for the types of income to report on Worksheets A, B, and C.
- Step 4 (parent) questions #84-86 - Carefully review the instructions for
the types of income to report on Worksheets A, B, and C.
- Step 6 question #97 - enter Johns Hopkins University SCHOOL OF NURSING
and our Federal School Code-E00476.
After submitting your FAFSA, the U.S. Department of Education will send you
a Student Aid Report (SAR). The SAR will summarize the data that you
reported on your FAFSA. Carefully review the information on your SAR. Make
sure that all information is correct and Johns Hopkins University SCHOOL OF
NURSING (E00476) is listed as a recipient of your application. If you need
to make changes to your SAR, you should go to the FAFSA Corrections on the
Web page and click on the "Make
Corrections to a Processed FAFSA" link.
