Every year, thousands of students file for financial aid for the following school year. To receive this money, students must follow a standard set of steps that will allow them to access all the possible federal student loans and grants that are available to them.
Filling out the FAFSAFilling out the FAFSA form represents one of the most important steps for the student who requires financial aid to pay for school. The information that the students provide on the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) determines not only how much federal aid a student receives, but also how much and the type of student aid. This is an important consideration for students who'd like to receive grant money, like the Pell Grant. The more a student can offset her financial aid package with free money like work study and Pell Grants, the fewer student loans she'll require to pay for her education. However, the entirety of the student's financial aid package from a federal aid point-of-view is determined by the numbers on the FAFSA. This includes loans, which many students need as well.
Grants: Free Student MoneyMuch of student aid consists of student loans like the Perkins loan. However, some of the aid that a student receives can be the kind they do not have to pay back. Grants and work study money fall into this category.
The type of grant that most students are familiar with is the Pell, and the student who receives the full amount for the Pell Grant can expect $5,500; however, not all students qualify for this amount. A number of factors are calculated to determine how much a student receives in grant money. These include expected family contributions, expected student contributions, the cost of the school the student attends and when the student applied for aid. The information on the student's FAFSA paperwork determines if a student gets the Pell and other grants like the FSEOG (Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant).
Students who would like to receive grants as part of their financial aid package, should apply for the FAFSA early in the year even if they don't have their tax returns completed. The student can estimate how much she and her parents will pay in taxes until they get the actual number. This allows the students to be eligible for all forms of aid, including grants. The later she files for aid, the greater the likelihood that the student will not get grant money for the year, requiring her borrow more or work extra jobs to offset the difference.
