FAFSA
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is the first step in regards to obtaining any type of financial aid.
This form can be found online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
Beware of any scams that ask for money to assist in completing the FAFSA! This application has been made free to anyone by the federal government using fafsa.ed.gov!
If you have any questions, please contact your school counselor!
