• Understanding the FAFSA 

      This guide is designed to help students and families navigate the U.S. Department of Education’s Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) in their quest to get financial aid for college. The guide will be particularly useful for students who are among the first in their family to go to college or are new to the country. We hope that educators and counselors will make use of the guide. Please download the PDF and share it widely. See the link for more information.
