The FAFSA, or Free Application For Student Aid, is the application used by nearly all colleges and universities to determine eligibility for federal, state and college-sponsored financial aid, including grants, educational loans, and work-study programs. It is a government form that uses your tax information to determine what you are able to pay for college and how much support you will need. Without this application, your child will not receive any financial assistance from the government.

80% of all student aid in the United States comes from the FAFSA. It is your BEST chance at getting money for college |
When do I fill it out?
Students will fill out their FAFSA with support during Parent FAFSA night on Oct. 3, 5 or 8th. We will also be available to support students in class as needed. As a result, we will ask that students bring in their parents tax information so that we are ready to support you! You and your student are the only individuals who will see this information as they enter it onto their FAFSA. Please contact Ms. Hughes should you have concerns about this.
