FAFSA VIDEO a BIG help to parents and student.
FAFSA completion help available:
       As students apply to colleges and celebrate their acceptances, the University System of Ohio
reminds them to fill out their Free Application for Federal Student Aid  (FAFSA).
     The U.S. Department of Education (USDOE) has set up a process to help students pay for college, and it starts with filing the FAFSA. The USDOE allocates billions of dollars in federal aid to students. FAFSA is the primary
tool used to determine eligibility for federal and state financial aid, as well  as aid from many colleges and universities. 
 
     The University System of  Ohio has a video on its website to help  families complete the FAFSA. It provides tips and advice for filling out and filing the FAFSA. The OhioHigherEd.org website also features a fact sheet about the FAFSA that answers potential questions.
