Free assistance with college financial aid forms

January 25, 2012

Photo by Victoria Stanish - The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) may be viewed online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. The website also has other helpful information about financial aid and answers to many questions for prospective college students and their parents.

Filling out financial aid forms for college can be nerve-wracking, but the Community Education Council is offering some help for college-bound students and parents who want to get it right the first time.
Students from Elk County who will be attending college for the first time this year and their parents are invited to attend one of two free sessions held in the computer lab at the Community Education Council of Elk and Cameron Counties (CEC) in downtown St. Marys on Monday, Jan. 30. The first session will run from 2 to 4 p.m. and the second from 5 to 7 p.m.
