什么是FAFSA?

FAFSA stands for the Free 应用程序 for Federal 学生 Aid. 这是一份由美国政府提供的表格.S. Department of Education that can be filled out by current and prospective college students (undergraduate and graduate) to determine their eligibility for student financial aid. 这是申请大多数联邦签证的第一步, state and college-provided financial aid for students — not just federal student aid, 顾名思义.

Nearly every student is eligible for some form of financial aid. 学生s who may not be eligible for need-based aid may still be eligible for an unsubsidized Stafford Loan regardless of income or circumstance. 一旦FAFSA申请完成并提交, a federal processor will examine all the information and pass the results on to the financial aid offices at the preferred colleges listed on the FAFSA.

The FAFSA form is often more than 100 questions long and can seem daunting, but it isn’t really—and the helpful financial aid experts at 普洛佛大学 can help you every step of the way.

Even if you think you may not be eligible, we encourage everyone to apply. The sooner you submit your FAFSA, the more financial aid options you will have!
