You can do this online or get a paper copy from the college you wish to attend or you high school guidance counselor.

Grants-these you do not have to pay back and are given to students with financial need. 2. Scholarships-thes do not have to be repaid either and they are given to exceptional or outstanding students for things like G.P.A.'s, sports, arts, etc. 3. Work Study-this is when you get a job on campus and can earn money to help you with school. 4. Student Loans-these need paid back. Be careful not to get carried away and borrow to much. Be responsible and know what kind of loan you are getting and keep in mind that you must pay the money back after you graduate and get a job.
