Financial Aid Workshop: The first steps, free and fast.

Date/Time
Date(s) - Monday November 6, 2023
6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Location
Foxcroft Academy


This is your starting line. After this free, one-hour get-together, you’ll have taken the critical first steps to apply for financial aid and be on your path to a more affordable higher education.

During this session, you’ll have the opportunity to create your FSA ID (the username and password required to access all Federal Student Aid websites). To create an FSA ID, each student and parent will need to know their Social Security number and name as it appears on their Social Security card.

What to Bring:

  • A laptop or other device to create your FSA ID (Some devices will be available if you are not able to bring one.)
  • Access to email for both the student and contributing parent(s) (Access to a device that can receive text messages will be helpful.)
