FREE APPLICATION FOR FEDERAL STUDENT AID (FAFSA)

For many students, paying for college is unattainable. While it is true that the cost of college is increasing an average of 2.6% for the past 10 years, colleges, universities, and private groups are working harder than ever in trying to find ways to help you achieve your dreams.

  • The first step is to complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) application or the Dream Act Application for Undocumented Students.

  • The FAFSA window opens October 1st and you must apply before March 2nd.

  • Attend the FAFSA Financial Aid Presentation with your Parents.

  • The FAFSA will determine what kind of financial aid you qualify for: Grants, Scholarships, Work Study, Loans, etc.

  • Ask about the Community College Promise Grants and the EOP(S) opportunities.

  • Each college/university has scholarship opportunities to help you pay for college so be sure to communicate with the institutions.
