Financial Aid
Plan ahead for college or career schools by applying for financial aid, before registering for classes!
ALL financial aid starts with the FAFSA or the CADAA.
The FAFSA, officially known as the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, is the form that families fill out to apply for federal grants, loans, and work-study funds for college students. It is administered by the U.S. Department of Education, which provides more that $150 billion in student aid each year.
