Most prospective students head to college with no idea what they are getting themselves into. They know they want to succeed in life but have no idea what it takes to be a great college student. One of the most surprising aspects of being a new student is figuring out how to qualify for financial aid. Most of the people in the Financial Aid Office are willing to be helpful but students often do not know the right questions to ask.
The first key to qualifying for financial aid is to fill out all financial aid forms. The most important form is the Federal Application For Student Aid, also known as the FAFSA. This form sends information to the government who in turn offers students low interest loans, jobs, and grants. Once this is filled out, all students should check with the Financial Aid Office to see if there are any other financial aid forms they can fill out and potentially earn more help.
Other forms of help can come in the guise of scholarships or private loans. Many schools have private scholarship funds set up and the only way to access them is through the Financial Aid Office. It is important that all students remain patient and kind when talking to the employees at these offices. They are under a lot of pressure and will not react by being helpful if a student becomes impatient or demanding. They are far more likely to help out a student that has been incredibly patient and understanding with the inevitable delays. Qualifying for financial aid can be tricky and the workers in these offices know all of the tricks. Everyone should want them on their side.
There are a lot of issues to deal with as a new college student. One of the most challenging is paying for tuition and qualifying for financial assistance. By quickly and completely filling out all financial aid forms, a student gives themselves the greatest opportunity at taking the burden of paying tuition off of their shoulders. Patience and perseverance will ultimately result in the best overall offer from the college or government.
