The office of Federal Student Aid provides grants, loans, and work-study funds for college or career school.
Federal Student Aid is part of the U.S. Department of Education and the largest provider of student financial aid in the nation.
To apply for federal student aid, such as federal grants, work-study, and loans, you need to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form. Competing and submitting the FAFSA form is free and easier than ever, and it gives you access to the largest source of financial aid to pay for college or career school. Many colleges use your FAFSA information to determine your eligibility for state and student aid, and some private financial aid providers may use your FAFSA information to determine whether you qualify for their aid.
The FAFSA form will become available at the beginning of October and needs to be completed as soon as it is available so you don't miss out on any type of funding you may be eligible for.
