Great turnout with 43 students and parents attending our FAFSA Completion Night! The FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is important because it is the primary application used to determine eligibility for federal financial aid like grants, work-study, and loans, which means that completing it is crucial to access the largest pool of funding available for college tuition and other educational expenses; most states and colleges also use FAFSA information to award their own financial aid packages, making it a critical step for students seeking to pay for their education.
Thank you to @onwardwelearn, Upward Bound, and @RICNews for your partnership and support this evening.
Save the date: Next FAFSA Completion Night will be Tuesday, February 11th.
