Completing a FAFSA is an important step in preparing for college. Most students take advantage of financial aid to help pay for college. The FAFSA unlocks access to that aid at the federal, state, and college level for students who qualify. In this online session on Thursday, November 10 from 6:00-7:00 p.m., we will walk you step-by-step through the online form so you know what to expect and can get your questions answered by financial aid professionals in real time. Spanish services will be available.
