Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)

This is how you apply for Federal Student Aid. FAFSA will evaluate your financial need and determine how much federal aid you are eligible to receive.  It could take the form of:
  • Grants - Free money that does not have to be repaid
  • Loans - Student loans are real loans (just like a car or home loan) that need to be repaid with interest
