Senior Financial Aid Reminders

Seniors:

Here's a financial aid reminder for you. In December, go to www.pin.ed.gov and get a PIN for you and one for your parent. On Jan. lst submit the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Be careful and make sure you are filing a FAFSA for the 2012-2013 school year. The sooner you file, the more free money available. Also, mark your calendar and plan to attend the Cash for College Workshop on Thursday, Jan. 5th from 5 - 8 p.m. in the B Labs. If you attend, your name will be submitted to win $1,000 in scholarship money. Finally, don't forget to return your CalGrant release form to Mrs. Austin to be considered for a Cal Grant.
