Financial Aid Options
Understanding your financial options is a critical part of planning and paying for your college education.
FAFSA
When you fill out your FAFSA, you are doing more than applying for federal student financial aid. You are giving colleges the information they need to consider you for scholarships, grants, and other financial aid. Take the first step in your education journey by filling out your FAFSA early in the application window to ensure funds and opportunities are still available.
Below you will find links to websites that provide information on managing money, dealing with credit and debt, and consumer protection information as well as links to help you understand and access Federal student financial aid, scholarships, and Stafford loans.
