A Few FAFSA Pointers from My Friends in FA
When filing on-line:
-The save button appears sporadically, throughout. When it is there, use it. Progressing to the next page, does not automatically save your application.
-Do not use the back button.
Again, DO NOT PAY FOR THIS SERVICE! Filing your FAFSA is free. Make sure you are on the .gov site!
Get your FAFSA filed today! Remember May 1 is the PA deadline.

FAFSA Means FREE
Please remember:
The URL for the official FAFSA site is www.fafsa.ed.gov . There are many for-profit FAFSA filing web sites - they will charge you! These sites are not affiliated with or endorsed by the U.S. Department of Education. Students should file at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
FAFSAs should be filed online. If you have specific circumstances prohibiting this and are an ETS participant, please contact me ASAP as I have a few paper forms for your use.
PHEAA will be holding free workshops throughout the state on Saturday, February 9. One will be held from 10-1 at Brother Bean Coffee Shop, Rte 257, Cranberry (Venango County). Another will be held from 10-1 at Clarion Free Library (Community Room), Main Street, Clarion.

File your FAFSA
Attention seniors or anyone planning to enroll in postsecondary education in Fall 2007:
It is time to file your FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid.) Applicants are encouraged to file online, but there are still paper versions available. Check your guidance office, local library, or if you are an ETS participant - call our office.
Meanwhile, if you do decide to file online, make sure you use the government website at http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/. Do not use any of the look-a-like sites that charge a fee. Filing the FAFSA is free. Here are some of the sites not to use (The links are not active - just check out the names.) : http://www.fafsa.com/, http://www.fafsa.us/, http://www.fafsaonline.com/, http://www.fasfa.com/. They are designed to confuse. I am sure there are even more out there - so feel free to share them in the comments.
Remember- the FAFSA is filed FREE and it is a .gov website!
