What is the FAFSA?
The FAFSA is the first step in the
financial aid process for college. The financial information you provide
on the FAFSA determines how much and which types of financial aid your
family is eligible for. You
can fill out the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.ed.gov
or obtain the paper version from the SHS Guidance Office.
In
order to file the FAFSA electronically, you will need a PIN to take the
place of your signature. You
can apply for a PIN at www.pin.ed.gov.
Both student and one parent need to have their own PIN to
complete the online FAFSA. There
is also a FAFSA on the Web Worksheet available in the Guidance Office to
make filling out your online FAFSA even easier! Filling out the online FAFSA can be up to 14 days quicker
than the paper version!
