Financial Aid Sessions for High School Seniors

The Massachusetts Educational Financing Authority (MEFA) will host two virtual Financial Aid Offer Hotline events from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, March 19 and Wednesday, April 16 to help college-bound students and their families understand financial aid offers. Each student/family will meet with a financial aid expert to walk through each college financial aid offer the student has received, calculate the estimated balance due at each school, and consider their options for paying the remaining college costs. Families can drop in virtually to either event. Interested students and families can register online.

Financial Aid Information

Parents/Guardians of Seniors:

If your student is planning to attend college this fall and you will need financial assistance, please be sure to complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as soon as possible. Then check each college's financial aid website to see if there are additional documents or forms required. The school counseling team has put together some resources to help you with the financial aid process.
