Summary

A variety of federal and state financial aid programs exist to help students pay for college, but if the proper procedures are not followed when applying for them, applications can easily be disqualified. This book simplifies the confusing application process by helping the reader understand each program and by providing detailed instructions and tips for completing forms. Samples of actual forms are included, and a unique award index helps students find scholarships that best apply to their situation. Instructions for using the Internet to access the latest federal aid policy updates are included. This replaces 1-881199-31-2.
