STEPS TO FINANCIAL AID SUCCESS

Before you do anything else access the FASFA application from http://www.fafsa.ed.gov.
NOTE: Do not use www.fasfa.com which is not a government site. While you can get the FASFA application it will cost you money. The Government site is free.

1. Print the FASFA Worksheet.
2. Apply for your Student and Parent PIN (Personal Identification Number).
   NOTE: This is your personal signature to ed.gov communications and applications. It will be your identification for the rest of your education life.
3. Bring together all information needed and fill out details on the worksheet BEFORE entering data on FASFA website.
   NOTE: You would do well to include ALL colleges you would like to go to or might go to. By including all possible colleges you will avoid wasting time in your application process.
4. Go back to the FASFA site and enter the data from your completed workbook and send.

Check out additional community and state scholarships. Be sure to include the Arkansas Department of Higher education and particularly the Arkansas Challenge, the Governor's Scholar's Program and the Arkansas Scholarship Connection
