Submit Your FAFSA
The 2024-2025 FAFSA is currently available. The FAFSA for 2024-2025 will use information from the 2022 tax year. The 2024-2025 FAFSA will be used for the Fall 2024, Spring 2025, and Summer 2025 terms.
Learn more about the 2024-2025 FAFSA changes.
If you have completed the FAFSA but did not request that a record be sent to CNM, you can still do so.
- Login to the FAFSA site, click "Add or Delete a School Code" in the FAFSA Follow-Up Step 3 section.
- Add CNM's Federal School Code: 004742
Adding CNM's school code will ensure that your FAFSA is submitted to CNM automatically.

Books and supplies can also be purchased with financial aid at any of the bookstore locations or online from the bookstore website.
