Senior Guardians and Seniors:
We are a month away from the opening of the FAFSA. Here are some things that you can do now to prepare for the application when it opens on Dec. 1st. The main thing to do now is to create your FSA ID. This must be done by the student and guardian and has to be done in advance of filling out the application.
