FAFSA Under Scholarship TAB

 7 Things You Need Before You Fill out the FAFSA Form

1.       Your FSA ID: An FSA ID is a username and password that you can use to log in to certain U.S. Department of Education (ED) websites. Each student, and one parent of each dependent student, will need an FSA ID to complete the FAFSA process on https://studentaid.gov/fsa-id/create-account/launch. We recommend creating your FSA ID early—even before you’re ready to complete the FAFSA form—to avoid delays in the process.

2.       Your Social Security Number

3.       Your Driver License Number

4.       Your 2017 tax records

5.       Records of your untaxed income

6.      Records of your assets

7.       List of school(s) you are interested in attending.
