Have you secured your financial aid for 2018-2019? Now's the time!
The 2018-2019 FAFSA is ready. The sooner you submit your FAFSA, the more aid you're eligible to receive. Visit www.fafsa.ed.gov to complete you new FAFSA.
Remember: There will be a question that says something like, “At the time you begin school, which of the following will you have? High school diploma / High school equivalency / Home school diploma / None of the above” You MUST select “None of the above” if you do not already have your high school equivalency or diploma.
College Goal Sunday!
If you or someone you know would like help with the FAFSA or would like more information about the financial aid process, consider attending College Goal Sunday! For more information, see the flyer below or visit osfa.la.gov/collegegoalsunday.
