Q.: Many students now prefer to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) through the FAFSA on the Web (FOTW) system, instead of completing a paper FAFSA. In answering student and parent questions about FOTW, it would be helpful for our financial aid staff to become familiar with the system. Is it possible to access FOTW for demo or training purposes?

A.: Yes, you can use ED's FAFSA on the Web demonstration to train financial aid staff or to show students how to use the online application. Go to http://fafsademo.test.ed.gov, and type in "eddemo" for the user name and "fafsatest" for the password.
