I'm wondering what the rationale is to move it up? I would worry it would increase disproportionality.
Its true that students applying early decision to private colleges may have earlier deadlines for financial aid, but the PROFILE is generally needed in those cases anyway.

I hope families of current high school students are getting this information, it could change their plans.
So:
**For this coming cycle (i.e. 2015-16 HS seniors & college freshman applying for 2016-17 academic year), Nothing changes. FAFSA window opens Jan. 1, 2016, based on 2015 tax filings.
**For the next cycle (High school class of 2017 [this year's juniors] & 2016-17 college sophomores [this year's college freshmen], the FAFSA application window opens Oct. 1, 2016, is for financial aid for the 2017-18 academic year, and will be based on 2015's taxes.
**For the years after that, FAFSA application window continues to be opened on October of the year prior to the academic year one is applying for, and will be based on taxes filed 2 years prior to the academic year one is applying for.
Clear as mud, right? I apologize if I haven't explained that well.
