Tips on Filling out the FAFSA

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) can sometimes be tricky. The FAFSA is however one of the most important first steps in the financial aid process at Pacific. It is used to apply for  Federal Financial Aid, such as grants, student loans, and work-study.  It is also used for determining eligibility some of our university grants and scholarships. Even if you don’t think you are eligible for financial aid, you should still fill it out.

To begin, visit http://www.fafsa.ed.gov. The three step process will help make sure you have all the information you need, all the steps completed successfully, and how to check on the status and make corrections if necessary.
