Financial Aid Info
Filling out the FAFSA® and having it sent to your college lets their financial aid offices know who needs money for school. The FAFSA relies on your parents' tax information. Before each year of college, fill out the form to apply for pell grants, work-study, and federal loans. After submission, you’ll receive your Student Aid Report.
Federal student aid includes:
Grants—money you never have to repay (unless you withdraw from school during a semester)
Loans—borrowed money for college or technical school; you must repay your loans, with interest
Work-Study—a work program through which you earn money to help you pay for school; also helps you get a job on campus
