FAFSA Workshops
If you would like help with your FAFSA for this summer or upcoming fall term, please plan to attend one of our workshops. Please wait until you complete your 2011 income tax return, and bring a copy with you when you attend the workshop if you are requesting aid for fall 2012. Summer applicants will need to bring the 2010 federal income tax return. Also, if you are a dependent student (under twenty-four, not married, not supporting children), please bring a parent to com-plete the entire process during the workshop. You do not have to make an appointment to attend. It usually takes about twenty to thirty minutes to complete the process.
