A Financical Aid workshop (including FAFSA) will be provided to seniors and/or parents on Tuesday, October 15 at 7:00 pm at the high school. Hands-on help with completing the FAFSA will be provided following the workshop. Please review the following information and bring the required information with you.

Seniors who plan to go to college need to complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as soon as possible after October 1. By completing the FAFSA, students will find out financial aid for which they qualify. This aid includes federal and state grants, some scholarships and low-cost student loans. Please note: A lot of colleges require the FAFSA to be completed before considering a student for college specific scholarships.

To prepare for completing the online FAFSA, review Gathering the Documents Needed to Apply. You can also complete the FAFSA on the Web Worksheet.

Students and parents will be required to create an FSA ID which will be used as a “signature” on the FAFSA. Only one FSA ID is required for a parent, no matter how many students they will have in college.
