Students and Families
As a student, or a family helping a student prepare for college, you want to explore all your education and financing options as you prepare to take that important step to college.
Applying for financial aid can seem daunting but we’re here to help. Here you’ll find the information, tips and links you need to make your education dreams a reality—whether that means researching colleges or learning more about your funding options.
Ten-minute webcast helps you complete the FAFSA
The first step in applying for most financial aid—federal, state and college—is to file the federal form called the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA. To help you prepare for and complete the FAFSA, we created a step-by-step webcast presentation that walks you through the process.
“The Financial Aid Application Process: What, When and How” shares:
- what information you need to apply,
- how to go about entering parent information,
- if you are dependent or independent,
- how to enter income information, and more.
You can print the presentation materials to help follow along.
Be sure to check out EdFund’s Fund Your Future materials for additional information on paying for college.
