Thinking about college? Then it is time to learn about FAFSA!

FAFSA is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid.  WHS will be holding an Informational Meeting on October 6, 2022 (Thursday) at 5:30 PM.   A representative will lead this meeting from Wright State University Financial Aid & Admissions team. They will share valuable information to help you understand the why and how for FAFSA.  The Free Application for Federal Student Aid is the primary form that the federal government, states and colleges use to award grants, scholarships, work study and student loans. Even if you think you do not qualify for financial aid it is still important to complete the process because some financial aid programs require a FAFSA even though they award aid without regard to family income and it may automatically qualify a student for low-interest federal student loans.  Lastly, filing a FAFSA can actually help a student gain admission to a college because it allows the admission officers to know the student most definitely wants to attend the college. FAFSA window opens on Oct. 1. And it is important to file your FAFSA as close to Oct. 1 as possible to improve your chances of qualifying for the most grant, scholarship and work-study aid.
