What is FAFSA?

[Sarah Schupp]

FAFSA is the free application for federal student aid. Parents and students are encouraged to fill this out after January 1st of the student's senior year, and then renew the form each following year. The FAFSA form uses numbers from your taxes to calculate a number that they think the parents can afford to contribute to their child's tuition each year. Using that number, Northland can award need based grants and work study to help pay for institutional costs. To learn more about FAFSA, go to the US Department of Education Free Application For Federal Student Aid Website (http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/).
