<p>I was just wondering does anyone know the student allowance for FAFSA next year (2011-2012)?</p>
<p>Not sure what allowance you mean - the income protection allowance for dependent students is going to $5250 according to the notice posted in the Federal Register. You can see all the formula changes here:</p>

<p>Ugh. I’m going to go way over my allowance this year. Ah, well - better more than less!</p>
