Filing Your QCOM FAFSA

Due to recent changes within the Department of Education, the school code for Quillen College of Medicine has been changed to 003487 (East Tennessee State University).  If you have already completed your 2025-26 FAFSA you will need to make a correction and list the school code 003487 in the first school option.

If you have not completed your 2025-26 FAFSA please go out and complete it and use the school code 003487.  Due to all the changes we are getting from the Department of Education, it is important to complete this immediately to avoid any delays in funding.

Fill out your FAFSA 

Go to the Department of Education's website and file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The school code is 003487. The Department of Education does not have our school code listed, so if you search, it will not be found. The code is listed under East Tennessee State University. If you don't use the School Code on your FAFSA we will not receive it.

 The 2025-2026 FAFSA, uses 2023 income and tax return information.
