How do I apply for financial aid?

Asked 6 months ago
To apply for financial aid, you need to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form online. The FAFSA form is used to determine your eligibility for federal grants, loans, and work-study programs. You will need to provide information about your income, assets, household size, and other financial details. It’s important to fill out the FAFSA as soon as possible after it becomes available each year, as some aid programs have limited funds and are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Once you submit the FAFSA, you will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) containing a summary of the information you provided and your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) towards college costs.
