Free Application for Student Aid (FAFSA)
Included in our student loan resources are financial aid forms. The application process for federal student aid and numerous state aid programs begin with the submission of the Free Application for Student Aid (FAFSA). Eligibility for financial aid hinges upon the information that the student provides on the FAFSA, which contains seven sections with questions about the applicant, their college plans, and financial data among other things. Students can fill out FAFSA's online form by visiting the FAFSA website at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov. They will even find a worksheet that allows them to get acquainted with the questions before completing the online application.
Financial aid applicants will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) which summarizes the data they reported on their FAFSA; it is official proof of receipt and processing of their FAFSA.
