However, there is a lot of information and help available to you in order to successfully apply for free financial aid and scholarships. Applying for financial aid is like applying for admission to college, but they’re not the same thing. The financial aid application process usually has its own forms, deadlines and requirements — and you don’t have to wait to be admitted to a college before you apply for financial aid.
Financial aid comes in the form of grants, scholarships, loans and work-study jobs. There are three basic sources of aid:
Federal and state governments
Colleges
Private organizations
