Edison State Community College created a video to help families understand the basics of financial aid.

Seniors: Planning to continue your education next year? It's recommended that you fill out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) which can qualify you for grants and scholarships for college!  The FAFSA form is open but will only be available periodically.  

Learn more about the FAFSA soft launch here:  Soft Launch of the 24-25 FAFSA Form 

You will need an FSA ID and can create that now (even if the form is not available).
