Raider Connect to Host FAFSA Workshop October 17

The 2019-2020 FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is available online now at www.fafsa.gov. On Wednesday, October 17, 2018, Enrollment Services Advisors will be available from 5-7pm to help students complete the 1920 FAFSA, at Raider Connect in the Student Union.  We will provide some computers, but students are encouraged to bring their own laptops, if it is convenient to do so.

Students will need a username and password for the FAFSA, known as the FSA ID.  This can be done in advance online at: fsaid.ed.gov, or we will assist in creating the FSA ID.  Parents also need their own FSA ID in order to sign the student's FAFSA. To set up an FSA ID, the student and parent must provide their names, social security numbers, and dates of birth; the student and parent also much each have the ability to provide a separate email address which can be verified at the time of setting up the FSA ID.  If you have previously created an FSA ID, bring your username and password.  If you have forgotten either the user name or password, we highly recommend taking the steps to retrieve them before attending the FAFSA workshop.

Additionally, students and parents should bring their 2017 federal tax information, including 1040, W2, and 1099 forms.

RaiderConnect is located on the main floor of the Student Union, through the main door, past the Admissions desk to the left.
