A Fresh Perspective on Finances for Young Consumers and College Students
Become a member
Let’s get right down to it: filling out an FAFSA form can be a real pain. Sure, there are a ton of benefits to applying for financial aid, but it’s a confusing application, with all kinds of ins and outs and financial information-giving, and the sad truth is that there’s a large percentage of prospective students who miss out on a good amount of money because they’re just not sure how to fill out the form.
It’s because of this that we’ve set out to help you understand the FAFSA better. We’ve got a full section of our article library dedicated to financial aid, so check it out and see what you can learn.
Of course, if you’re still in the dark Sallie Mae, one of the country’s leading providers in education loans, has created three extremely helpful how-to videos for filling out the FAFSA, and tomorrow they’re hosting a live chat FAQ session on their website from 9-10pm EST. Stop by and see what the experts have to say or ask your own questions at www.SallieMae.com/FAFSA.
To make it even more attractive, Sallie Mae is offering a total of $10,000 in scholarship money to students that visit the FAFSA’s February Resource Center. One Gold medalist will win $6,000, $3,000 will go to a Silver medalist, and the Bronze will earn $1,000. All prizes will be put in the winner’s Upromise rewards account, which they can use to help pay their college tuition.
