Class of 2013, Happy
New Year = Time for FAFSA!
The
first of the month has passed which can mean a few things, a new year to
celebrate, making (and breaking) those New Year’s Resolutions, and FAFSA time!
The 2013-2014 FAFSA, Free Application for Federal Student Aid, became available
on January 1st, 2013. All seniors should be in the process of
exploring, reviewing and completing his FAFSA. Deadlines to complete this
application vary by state, for New Jersey the deadline is June. However the
sooner you complete the FAFSA, the sooner you can receive your maximum
financial aid package from each college you have been accepted to. There are many helpful resources to support
the student and his family through this process – two of my favorites being http://studentaid.ed.gov/ and http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/index.htm.
Be sure when filing your FAFSA to use the .gov website and not an imposture!
Happy Filings! Mrs.
Sarah Morissette, M. Ed.
