If I could make two suggestions to anyone applying for financial help, they would be:
- Complete the FAFSA Form EARLY, and
- Search for and Apply for scholarships as often as possible
Why? The two biggest mis-perceptions are:
- The FAFSA Form is too complicated (so I will put it off until later)
- There are no scholarship I will qualify for
The FAFSA Form is not easy. However, it can be done and most people will have to complete it anyway. The Student Loan Network has created a guide to help you with this challenging task: www.FAFSAonline.com. Use the guide to help you complete the FAFSA.
Get it done early to qualify for more help. Most federal and school financial help programs will require that you have completed the FAFSA. If you have it done early, there will be more financial help available for you to qualify for. The longer you wait, the less help there will be left for you to apply for…
Finally, there are thousands of scholarships designed for all types of people – even you. We have created a useful tool with an ebook on searching the internet and applying for scholarships. Search our database and/or download your free ebook online at: Student Scholarship Search Guide. Again, apply early as many awards won’t be there if you wait too long.
