Navigating the college financial aid roadmap is confusing. Here are the top ten questions you need to ask.
- Where do I look for financial aid scholarships?
- How does my family’s income affect my financial aid?
- What type of aid does the college offer?
- Do I qualify for federal or state aid?
- What documents do I need to complete the financial aid forms?
- Are there deadlines to submit financial aid information?
- How do I determine if my family can afford a specific college?
- My parents are divorced; does this affect my financial aid?
- What financial aid forms do I need to complete?
- When I receive my award letter, how do I know if I have been appropriately awarded?
If a student meets the eligibility requirements for a school scholarship or grant, you must make sure that you have completed all required documentation and meet their deadline.
The deadline for financial aid is often a different deadline than the admissions application deadline.
All “free” monies from the school, federal, and state governments are given out first-come, first-serve. Knowing what you are eligible for and completing all the necessary steps is vital to receive the most free money.
Don’t procrastinate. The earlier you give the college your financial aid information, the sooner you will know if you can afford the cost of attendance.
