Financial Aid Information

Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)

You use the FAFSA form to apply for federal student aid, such as grants, work-study, and loans. In addition, most states and colleges use information from the FAFSA form to award nonfederal aid. Even if you don't think you will qualify for the free money, file your FAFSA because some schools will NOT award you their scholarships without a FAFSA on file!

The redesigned FAFSA form will be available December 1, 2024 for the 2025-2026 school year. You should update your FAFSA application EACH YEAR you are enrolled in trade school or post secondary education. Apply free online at fafsa.gov.

Get a head start and create your FAFSA account/login id now!

Apply as soon as possible! Federal aid money is awarded "first come, first served."
