Applying for Financial Aid:

  • Application on FAFSA.gov  (FAFSA.gov is the preferred method for submitting the FAFSA -Free Application for Federal Student Aid)

  • Students and parents need to create a FSA ID prior to completing the FAFSA

  • Find school codes

 

The FAFSA is now open to complete your application for federal student aid for post-secondary education.  All college freshman are eligible for a $5500 loan regardless of parental income and potential grants.  The financial aid office at Penn State Schuylkill shared their presentation to help you with the application since we are unable to have an in person Financial Aid Night.
