What should I bring?

Parents and students should bring their tax information and/or last pay stub from the 2012 tax year in order to complete the 2013/2014 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA form allows families to estimate their financial information, which can be corrected after their taxes have been completed.

  • Your Social Security Number (can be found on Social Security card)
