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) or Microsoft Excel Format. If all else fails, try calling the Federal Student Aid Information Center hotline at 1-800-4-FED-AID.
