WHEN filing for financial aid do you have wait until you have been accepted at a certain college and then ...?

Question

apply for financial aid?

Answer 1

Many schools require that a financial aid application be completed before admission notifications. You should look at every school's policy, because they could be different. But for all of them, you should definitely submit the FAFSA well before the fin. aid deadline. I would just suggest contacting all the schools or looking at their websites, just to make sure you get everything in on time.

Answer 2

No, you need to fill out a federal financial aid form before you apply. The form asks you for colleges you are interested in. In most cases, you need to fill out this form in order to be eligible for other financial aid, grants, etc. So be sure to do it soon if you are planning to start college this fall.

Answer 3

Have your SAR sent by the FAFSA people to all of the schools you are applying to - once accepted complete their financial aid forms.

Answer 4

You can do it like that.You have to add the schools codes on your FAFSA and you can add up to 6 or more schools to see how much will you will recieve.Do it ASAP the deadline for each school varies outside the state.
