You will need the Federal School Code (also known as a Title IV Institution Code) for each college or university to which you are applying in order to complete the FAFSA. The Federal School Code is a six-character code that begins with a 0 (zero), G, B, or E. Be careful to use the correct Title IV code on the FAFSA, because some schools have several codes to designate different programs or campuses.

You can obtain a school's Federal School Code by calling the school's financial aid office or by using this search form. You can also use this form to look up a school's name based on their Federal School Code.

If you can't find your school using this form, try using just the name, or a substring or acronym of the name, or just the city and state. Also try using Smart Match; it takes twice as long, but knows about common spelling errors, abbreviations, and other name variations. The 2008-2009 Federal School Code List is also available in PDF Format (1 mb). If all else fails, try calling the Federal Student Aid Information Center hotline at 1-800-4-FED-AID.
