What is FAFSA?

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is a free online form you complete to apply for federal student aid to help pay for college or career school.

What would we be doing?

Students and Contributors will create a Federal Student Aid (FSA) Account to fill out the FAFSA Form. If you already have an FSA Account, we can begin completing the FAFSA!

How can I prepare for the event?

Students and contributors can complete the creation of an FSA account at home. This helps improve the completion of the FAFSA Form.
