Financial Aid

There are literally billions of dollars available in both merit and need-based assistance. In order to receive most of it, however, the proper paperwork must be submitted correctly and on time. This can include, but is not limited to the FAFSA, CSS/Profile, Institutional forms, and Business/Farm Supplement. In order to get the most out of your awards there is a lot you would need to learn, especially if you have your own business or special situations. Many of these forms are considered longer and more complex than the federal tax forms. Similar to taxes, it often pays to have advice on how to lower your expenses, not to mention reduce the hassle and stress of this process.
