If you are a citizen of the Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, or Palau, otherwise known as the “Freely Associated States” and you do not have a Social Security Number (SSN), enter 666 in the first three positions of the SSN field. Leave the remaining six positions blank. After your application is submitted, our system will assign you an SSN with the last six digits.

To open a saved application prior to our system assigning you an SSN with the last six digits, you will need to enter 666 in the first three positions of the SSN field.

If our system has assigned you an SSN with the last six digits, you will need to enter the full assigned SSN to open a saved application.

If our system has assigned you a nine-digit identifier beginning with 888, enter that identifier, but replace the 888 with 666.

Note: prior to saving your application, you should view your FAFSA Summary to see the full SSN our system has assigned to you. You will need the full SSN to retrieve your saved application.
