FAFSA & WASFA
FAFSA and WASFA opened on October 1st
Common Myths
Myth: "I won't qualify for anything"
Answer: Need-based aid is awarded to students who qualify, but most post-secondary schools require FAFSA for merit-based aid (which is not need-based!). You would also be surprised how much you qualify for!
Myth: "I can't use financial aid for technical college"
Answer: Technical colleges, community colleges, and 2-year colleges award financial aid based on the FAFSA or WASFA too! FAFSA and WASFA are not just for 4-year universities.
