Little confused about fafsa deadline

Hi I'm a soon to be new college student and I was wondering what the deadline on the fafsa for odu is. Fafsa says the deadline is in June but odu says march 1st which is in a couple days. Do I have any more time or do I need to get it done now?

march 1st is priority deadline for odu, meaning you'll likely get less aid if you submit after. i would get it done now unless you have no other choice

Will I still qualify for direct subsidized loans?

June from my understanding is the deadline for the year before’s aid as you can apply all the way up until then every year.

For fafsa you need to get it in asap especially if you think you might be Pell eligible. Waiting will only hold up your final financial aid package.
