Did you know that the time line and process for submitting
your FAFSA (Federal Application for Student Aid) has changed? According to the
Federal Student Aid Office of the U.S. Department of Education, the application
process is now open from October 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018 and requires the
submission of tax information from 2015 tax returns
Not sure what this is or what means for you? Wondering what
kinds of aid will be accessible, whether or not you are eligible, or how to go
about applying? The FSU Lewis J. Ort Library Government Documents Libguide has
many weblinks with answers to these questions and more!
The 2nd floor Media area will be featuring a bulletin board
showcasing these resources, as well as answers to some of these essential
questions. The sites featured can be found on the Libguide created by our
Government Documents Librarian, Lisa Hartman at http://libguides.frostburg.edu/gov-topic.
Under “Children’s Government Resources” the Kids.gov link will lead you to websites on varying
subjects managed by USA.gov. Here there are two major links you can click
on to give you Financial Aid information. The first is “How do I apply for
federal/student aid” and the other is “Financial Aid for Students.” Both of
these links take you to pages detailing the types of aid out there, eligibility
requirements, how to apply, and what to expect from the process. They also
connect you directly to the FAFSA form website and provide how to videos for
the process, as well as deadlines and information you may need to complete your
FAFSA form.
This information is essential to your higher education, so
don’t waste any time (or money) and check out these resources to know your
options and to get your financial aid application started correctly right away!
Please come by and check it out! For questions dealing
specifically with your Frostburg State Financial Aid process for deadlines and other
