Federal student loans are some of the most affordable financial
aid tools available to students and their families, with interest
rates lower than most other forms of financing and deferred payments
until after graduation.
To qualify for federal sources of financial aid, students must
complete and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Financial
Aid (FAFSA) to the U.S. Department of Education. Make sure you
submit the FAFSA form as early as possible! Submitting the FAFSA
determines your eligibility for student aid by:
* Applying a standard financial aid eligibility calculation
to a student's and family's personal and financial information
* Conducting checks with other government agencies (Social Security
Administration and Selective Service for example) to ensure the
applicant is eligible for federal student aid.
* Electronically forwarding a record of the application to the
school/schools specified by the applicant.
