College/Money

Get Help Paying for College

Help your senior fill out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as soon as possible! Don't wait because each state and school has its own deadline even though the application for the FAFSA has a 21-month cycle. Plus, some states award aid on a first-come, first-served basis until the money runs out.
