Educators are encouraged to use the lesson plans, slide decks, and resources below to support the implementation of “Universal FAFSA” and guide students through the application process. The tools comply with personal finance, ASCA, and Nebraska Career Readiness Standards.
The Nebraska FAFSA Task Force developed the lesson plans with input from Omaha Public Schools, Lincoln Public Schools, EducationQuest Foundation, and the Nebraska Department of Education.
The FAFSA lesson plan is divided into smaller segments, covering several class periods. We suggest the following order using the slides and scripts provided below:
