My friend told me that if you apply for FAFSA on the first day of the year, then you are more likely to get grants for the full amount that you need. I was too lazy and never did it, but that's how he got thru college without any loans. Jan 01 is coming fast so fill it out now and send it out on Dec 30th. He said to leave the tax information empty, and they will send you the tax portion to fill out later on. When you have your taxes done you can send it in. |
