Your FAFSA Unlocks More Opportunities
Every incoming student should complete the FAFSA, which helps determine the financial aid options (like the HOPE Scholarship, grants, loans or student work programs) for which they’re eligible. You might not think your student needs or is qualified to receive federal financial aid, but the FAFSA is free, which means you’ve got nothing to lose and only aid to gain!
We know the financial aid process can be overwhelming, so we’ve created The Guided Path to walk you through each of the stages involved in filling out the FAFSA. If you’ve got questions along the way, visit URL for help. Deadlines are crucial, and it’s best to apply early, so visit sfs.gsu.edu to get started now.
