Step 1: Apply for FAFSA (fafsa.ed.gov)
Step 2: Apply for DCTAG
Step 3: Submit Supporting Documents
The DC Tuition Assistance Grant (DCTAG) application, or the DC OneApp, requires information from the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine student eligibility for DCTAG. The US Department of Education has announced that FASFA information, which has historically been made available in January, will not be available until mid-March. To accommodate this shift and ensure a smooth application process for students and families, the DCTAG application will now open on March 11, 2024, not Feb. 1, 2024. The application period will remain open until Sept. 6, 2024.
