Submit Your FAFSA
The 2023-2024 FAFSA is currently available. The FAFSA for 2023-2024 will use information from the 2021 tax year. The 2023-2024 FAFSA will be used for the Fall 2023, Spring 2024, and Summer 2024 terms.
The 2024-25 FAFSA is now available. Learn more about the 2024-2025 FAFSA changes.
If you have completed the FAFSA but did not request that a record be sent to CNM, you can still do so.
- Login to the FAFSA site, click "Add or Delete a School Code" in the FAFSA Follow-Up Step 3 section.
- Add CNM's Federal School Code: 004742
Adding CNM's school code will ensure that your FAFSA is submitted to CNM automatically.
