Does FIU Require the CSS Profile?

CSS Profile
Not usedFIU uses the FAFSA for federal grants, loans, work-study, and some scholarships and does not list the CSS Profile in its undergraduate aid process. Students can pursue FIU-sponsored and private scholarships separately, including opportunities available to students who are not federally eligible.
CSS school code
NoneFIU has no CSS Profile code because it does not use the form. Submit the FAFSA and separate university-sponsored or private scholarship applications directly to FIU instead.
Published financial aid deadlines
These are the school's currently published 2026–27 dates. A late or updated application cycle can use different dates, so confirm the deadline shown in your applicant portal.
Which parent files?
The student and every required FAFSA contributor, including a parent or spouse when applicable, create and use separate FSA IDs. All contributors must provide consent for the federal tax-data transfer and sign before the FAFSA can be processed.
Documents and next steps
Use FIU FAFSA code 009635. Review the FAFSA Submission Summary after processing and monitor both FIU email and MyFIU for the financial aid notification. Corrections that significantly affect eligibility or follow an award notice should be coordinated with FIU OneStop.

Estimate the rest of your aid
The CSS Profile does not tell you what federal aid you may receive. Estimate that separately, then compare the result with each college's net price and your outside scholarship options.
