This Web site is your source of information for the U.S. Department of Education PIN. Select one of these links for more information about what the PIN is and where you can use it, or select the PIN Frequently Asked Questions link.

If you receive a PIN, you agree to not disclose or share your PIN with anyone. Your PIN serves as your electronic signature and provides access to your personal records. You should never give your PIN to anyone, including commercial services that offer to help you complete your FAFSA. Be sure to keep your PIN in a safe place. You can use the same PIN in the future to apply electronically for student aid and to access your U.S. Department of Education records.

If you have never received a U.S. Department of Education PIN, want to know the steps to take to apply for a PIN, or are unsure if you already have a PIN, please select Apply for a PIN.
