If you are still a high school student, be sure to hold a conversation or two or three with a high school guidance counselor and learn the ins and outs of higher education financial aid. Perhaps your parents can join in on those learning sessions with a HS counselor and you.

Be sure to learn about the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid – http://www.fafsa.ed.gov ) which is the form you will need to complete no later than mid-March so that you and your family’s financial information can be shared with the colleges/universities to which you have applied for admittance. After completing the FAFSA, you will find out if you will awarded government grant funds (which do not need to be paid back) and if you will be offered a loan or loans to help cover some of your higher education expenses.

If your high school grades have been good, you may also be eligible to be awarded a scholarship that will help cover part of your higher education expenses through the college/univ. you will be attending. Many schools have such scholarships for just their own students. For a number of colleges/universities the scholarship deadlines for the 2012-2013 school year have passed. For some the deadlines for consideration are coming up quickly.

To start to help get you and your parents up to speed regarding paying for college/university and other issues, I refer you to this web page from the FAFSA pages – Student Aid on the Web:
* http://studentaid.ed.gov/PORTALSWebApp/students/english/index.jsp
There you will see links to good information on a number of higher education issues, including financial aid. Be sure to click on the links and read the information given.

If you are no longer a high school student, then be sure to hold conversations with a financial aid counselor at a school to which you have applied or will apply and learn about higher education financial aid.

Also, your local public library will have good recent information regarding how to pay for college. Go to the library and ask a reference librarian to help you find information to help you learn about higher education financial aid.

There is no need to pay a business (NCFS, for example) to gather the information that you can your parents can do by themselves. Your funds will be tight enough once you start as a college/univ. student without you/your parents paying out for a service that they need not pay for.

As a class at santiago Canyon college we got together to make this event. Our goal was to raise as much money and get as many shavees as possible in honor of a ten year old boy named Davis who has been fighting cancer since the age of 2.

“To be honest, I never knew I would be a part of something so awesome when I signed up for comm 101 a few months ago. Definitely glad I did! Awesome job everyone, Davis is gonna have an amazing Christmas now, thanks to all our hard work. What we did was inspiring and just plain freaking cool!” -Matt LeGrand
