Webinar: How to Pay for College
In this webinar Jeff Lackey, from Sallie Mae, provides information on how to navigate the onerous process of paying for college. You will explore various ways to save for college, tuition payment options, including grants, loans, and scholarships, as well as strategies for minimizing the cost of college.
If you’re a dependent student, you’ll need to provide the following:
Your Social Security number
Your parents' Social Security numbers (if applicable)
You and a parent will need a FSA (Federal Student Aid ID)*
*To access the FAFSA and sign the form electronically. Your FSA ID must be obtained at studentaid.gov before you start the FAFSA, and we recommend applying 3-5 days before you plan on starting the FAFSA.
Academic year 2024-2025: Submit your FASFA between December 1, 2023 and June 30, 2024
Academic year 2025-2026: Submit your FASFA between October 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025
FASFA tips to keep in mind:
Filing the FAFSA is free—you should never be asked to pay to complete the form.
If your financial aid status has changed, you must complete the FAFSA with the information required, and then follow up with your school’s financial aid office for further advice.
To be eligible for federal financial aid, you must file the FAFSA for each year you’ll be in school.
