Students are responsible for completing a FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) so that a valid SAR (Student Aid Report) will be on file. The school cannot determine an award without an SAR. You do not need to wait until you test or get accepted to start this process. Please read the following instructions carefully.
Step 1. Go to Federal Student Aid and request a User ID and Password. Please note: The FAFSA application is Free.
Step 2. Gather items that will assist you in completing the FAFSA. For example: tax returns, bank statements, information on SSI, welfare, child support, etc.
Step 3. Once you have received your User ID and Password, go to www.fafsa.ed.gov and complete a FAFSA. Our federal school code is 016558. If you are not able to apply on-line you may schedule an appointment with the school’s Financial Aid office for assistance.
Step 4. In 2-5 days you can return to the FAFSA website and access your SAR.
Step 5. The Financial Aid office will review your SAR and determine your eligibility for a Pell Grant and/or Stafford Loan. You can schedule an appointment to review your school expenses and financial aid award “shopping sheet”. An award package will be mailed to you upon official acceptance into the program prior to your start date.
