The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)<\/strong> is a federal program that helps determine your eligibility for various grants, scholarships, loans and work-study programs based on personal and family income. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It’s a key first step in to receive financial aid from almost ANY organization, not just the government. Many private foundations and organizations that offer scholarships use the FAFSA to determine your financial needs. So even if you don’t think you’ll qualify for federal aid, complete the FAFSA!<\/strong> It will open the door to many other sources of financial assistance to earn your ECE credentials. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
