There's serious money on the line
Filing a FAFSA is the single most important thing you can do to get money for college. It's the gateway to more than $150 billion in college grants, work-study funds, and federal student loans, as well as certain state-based aid.

Contact Mrs. Schultz if you need assistance completing the FAFSA in order to get money to pay for education and training after high school 989 358 5319 or schultzc@alpenaschools.com
