Planning for college financial aid can be overwhelming, but I'm here to help. Here are some essential tips and strategies: Understand Financial Aid Types: Financial aid includes grants, scholarships, federal and private loans, and work-study programs. Grants and scholarships don't need to be repaid, while loans do. File the FAFSA: Start by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). It's available through the U.S. Department of Education's Federal Student Aid website. The deadline for filing the FAFSA is usually June 30 for fall enrollment, but check your school's specific deadlines. Maximize Eligibility: Lower your "assessable assets" by considering Roth IRAs for summer jobs and other strategies1. Use the IRS Data Retrieval Tool to simplify the process2. Be Aware of Deadlines: Different schools and colleges may have earlier deadlines for financial aid applications. Check their requirements. Apply Early: Submit your FAFSA as soon as possible to maximize aid opportunities. Check Email Regularly: Schools communicate important financial aid information via email, so stay informed. Look at Out-of-Pocket Costs: Consider the overall cost of attendance, including tuition, fees, room and board, and other expenses. Remember, financial aid can significantly reduce the burden of college costs.
