FAFSA opens in December, we will hold a workshop on December 16th and 18th to help you create an account!
The FAFSA form should be submitted as soon as possible because funds are limited.
The FAFSA form is your child’s application, so keep in mind when it says “you,” it means “you, the student.”
Once your child’s FAFSA form is submitted, the “Confirmation” page will appear on the screen.
Using this link, your child can transfer information into the state aid application. If you have more than one child attending college or career school and you’re logged in as the parent, you can transfer your parent information into your other child’s FAFSA form using the option on this page.
The information you and your child report on the FAFSA form is used to calculate your child’s Expected Family Contribution (EFC), which measures your family’s financial capacity, determines how much federal student aid your child may be eligible for, and may also be used by your state and the schools listed to determine grant and scholarship eligibility.
Your child will receive an EFC on the Student Aid Report (SAR), which summarizes their FAFSA information. Using the FAFSA information and EFC, the financial aid office will determine the amount of aid your child may receive
