Financial Aid Loans | Available Federal Financial Aid Worth Applying For
With education being a very essential tool in ones life, it needs a lot of consideration before time passes by and you realize that other things are overtaking it. If education is ignored while it happens to be a hub for knowledge to achieve your dream, then there is no doubt your future is threatened.
Let us face it, education is expensive and it needs a lot of financing. For that reason Federal Financial Aid is important and is available for anyone in need of financial help. Details about Federal Financial Aid is available online, be on the look out on it and you will find a means for funding your education.
There are different types of Federal Financial Aid programs offered, try to understand what each offers and the conditions, also the documentation required so that you apply with ease after settling for a preferred federal financial aid. Enquire from other people where necessary to be sure of the decision you are making. You will be in a position to know how much you require for your education, personal life, and how much financial aid you can get.
Again you should be aware that a federal financial aid is a kind of a loan that you have to pay back. So do not get the help and then seat back and relax, and before you know it your loan is being defaulted resulting to severe consequences. Just pay for these federal loans as you agreed and by so doing you will set a good record history of your credit performance.
You will find various federal financial aid institutions like FAFSA Financial Aid and Federal Stafford Student loans being the most preferred among others.

You are suppose to be showing verification to the school, not with the social security administration. Call your college and ask what documentation you need to turn in to prove you are a us citizen. They may just ask for a drivers license or a social security card or other legal documentation depending on your situation.

The Fafsa is the form that is required to receive federal and state aid.
The Stafford loan is a loan; everyone who received the Stafford filed the Fafsa.

But, because of the high costs of college, inadequate information about financial aid and loans, and guidance counselors responsible for hundreds of students, these students are not applying for or enrolling in college.

Betty,
It was so nice to meet you on Thursday and to hear about this wonderful journey. I wanted to give you the information for my current favorites:
1. The Food Project: Brings youth together to learn about farming and bring food to Boston communities with little access to fresh food. http://www.thefoodproject.org
2. Ladder Up: Formerly the Tax Assistance Program. I worked there for 2 years as an Americorps*VISTA. They help hardworking families to navigate complicated financial issues such as the tax system and federal financial aid. http://www.ladderup.org
3. The Water Project: I found them on World Water Day, and I saw that you also gave to a similar cause on that day. What I really like about this organization is that they leave a true lasting benefit behind by building wells in communities in Africa. http://www.thewaterproject.org
4. The Cara Program: In similar keeping to organizations that have a lasting benefit, this program provides job training for individuals at risk of homelessness to give them the skills they need to get a permanent job. I learned of them through Ladder Up, as we partnered to do taxes for those that had found jobs. http://www.thecaraprogram.org
Again, Betty, it was great to meet you, and while I imagine that your giving schedule is easily filled with very worthwhile causes, these are just a few organizations that have captured my attention.
Good luck, and I will certainly be checking back to see how the rest of this year goes!
Best,
Sophie Eustis

1. You have to provide citizenship status to the fin aid office and apply for admission to all the schools you are considering attending if you want them to give you a financial aid "Award Letter". (A letter detailing the types and amounts of the financial aid they are offering you).
The school will tell you exactly what documentation they require to filful this error on your fafsa. On the income verification, you should provide it and update it after you and your parents do your taxes.
2. I was under the impression you can only add 6 schools. But if they are allowing you to enter 10, more power to you. You are prob getting that message because you can't add more than (10) or whatever you entered.
Hope this helps.
EDIT- Also, make sure you social security number is correct on your SAR and your name is the same as on your social security card. Just to make sure.

Joseph @ 6:43 pm:
Let's clarify a few things:
1. I'm not sure what racial bias you are referring to. The only time I even refer to race is when I refer to a piece a law professor wrote. Race is not a part of my argument.
2. I am not questioning the motives of people who disagree with me the way you are questioning mine with accusations of racial/political biases. Souder and other Republicans believe that the policy is a deterrent and I don't question that they believe that. I explain why I don't believe that it is.
3. I never really understood why the Republicans were so defensive when they are called the Party of No. That's basically their platform. Government should do little as possible because it can do almost no good.
4. I don't assume that everyone who uses illegal drugs wants to stop using illegal drugs the way you assume that most people who are using drugs don't want to change. I'm assuming that people who may want to change will find a situation in which they are barred from aid as a deterrent to making that change.
5. You don't have to explain to me how rich people are also found ineligible to aid. I already acknowledge that the law is universally applied. My problem is that when this law is universally applied, it disproportionately targets the poor and working class. Federal financial aid exists precisely because many would be unable to go to college without it. When you deny someone the right to federal financial aid (assuming that they need financial aid to begin with of course), you're basically denying that person's right to go to college. If legislators want to pass new a law that dictates that all students cannot go to college if they are found to be in possession of illegal drugs, that would equal treatment under the law. The current law is not that.

just not that @ 12:17 pm:
1. Yes, CoA includes not only tuition, fees, room board (on and off campus) and books but will also include other costs (usually listed as "misc") like a computer, transportation costs and for independent students with kids, even child care costs.
To find out what your schools "Cost of Attendance" is, look it up on your schools website. It will be labeled as such.
2. Other fin aid INCLUDES all other aid you are getting. All federal grants (including the Pell) and state grants, loans, work study, scholarships,
So, if your schools CoA is 15,000 and your EFC is 1000 then that means you will get 4,600 in a federal Pell and a 5,500 stafford loan. You also have a 2,000 scholarship from your school.
So, your parents would be able to borrow up to:
(1000 + 4600 + 5500 + 2000) =13,100 – 15,000 = $1,900 total (a year. half in the fall and half in the spring) in a parent PLUS loan
or if you didn't want to take out the student Stafford loan then your parents would be able to borrow
1,900 + 5,500 = 7,400 total (again, half in the fall and half in the spring)
Be aware that since many of those costs are "indirect" not paid directly to the school, your parents may be wise NOT to take out a parent PLUS loan (as in the case of only borrowing 1,900) because all your direct costs (tuition, fees, books, dorm and meals) will prob be all covered by your aid and the 1900 would just be for the "misc" and "transportation" categories I mentioned before.
A note about parent PLUS loans. If your other aid covers all these direct costs, the excess parent PLUS loan goes to your PARENTS, not you. So, in theory, if YOUR aid covers everything, you may never see a DIME of the excess. Your school will deposit their loan money in THEIR bank account and they don't HAVE to give it to you at all…. to be used for other "misc" indirect costs your parents might have for you attending school.
My parents took out PLUS loans for me my first two years, I never saw a dime of the money and they used the excess one year to buy my dad a recliner. Of course, PLUS loans are not the Students loans to repay, so I didn't worry too much about it… I just got a part time job to may for my "misc" costs (shampoo, paper, gasoline) instead. lol

your financial aid office is correct. loans and jobs are your options. since you are only 20, your parents income is taken into consideration whether they help you or not. I think that is only fair, BTW. if it were not that way, the taxpayers would be paying for every college student, they are nearly all over 18 and everyone of them would be crying independent if they could.
