FAFSA Reminders

Seniors, for the last month I have been focused on the younger students with their future planning, but as those meetings started winding down last week (and I am SO HAPPY that ALL of my registration meetings are now DONE!!) I started having a chance to touch base with more seniors again. The topic that came up the most was paying for college and how you're going to afford the colleges that you'd like to attend. This is a very stressful part of the process and I am thankful that you are thinking through it all with your families so that you make smart decisions for your future.

One of the important reminders I have for you is to be sure that you have submitted your FAFSA and that your intended colleges have everything that they need to look at you for financial aid consideration.

Here are articles that speak to the FAFSA and financial related issues with college:
