The Wonders of FAFSA
Don’t Miss Out on Free Money!
Lurking both subconsciously and consciously in every student’s mind is one burning question: How am I going to pay for college? While some receive a helping hand from family, others are not as fortunate; many find the overwhelming cost to attend college to be a looming wall preventing them from achieving their dreams.
There are ways to close this gap, with one of the main resources available to students being the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, commonly known as the FAFSA. The FAFSA enables students to qualify for many types of financial aid, giving many the opportunity to earn money for college.
In addition, the FAFSA is not solely catered toward low-income students; anyone has a chance to qualify. Many scholarships and grants require students to fill it out if they want to be considered, so it doesn’t hurt to give it a try.
The FAFSA opens each year on October 1st, so make sure to complete it as early as possible for the most benefits!
