Submit the FAFSA Online
Work with your parents to finish the FAFSA online
application as soon as possible. The paper FAFSA
Worksheet should already be completed by hand using
estimates of your family’s 2010 income and financial assets. All
you should have to do at this point is to go online and type answers
into the blank spaces on the online application.
You can also complete the traditional FAFSA paper form and mail it
using regular U.S. mail – ask your high school counselor for
the paper form.
ONLINE FAFSA APPLICATION
Complete the FAFSA
online application as
soon as possible (preferably by January 7, 2011).
When you submit your online FAFSA, you will be able to print the FAFSA
results, called the Student
Aid Report (SAR or “E-SAR”). Review
your SAR to make sure all the information listed is correct. The
SAR will show your calculated Expected
Family Contribution (EFC) based upon the financial information
entered. Your EFC will be
used by your colleges to calculate your financial aid awards.
NOTE: Each college will have a different deadline for submitting
the FAFSA. Many schools REQUIRE the FAFSA to be submitted no
later than February 1, 2011. Note the deadline of each college
that has accepted you and DO NOT miss any deadlines. |
