Understand the FAFSA: Five Videos to Help
The College Success Foundation understands that the FAFSA is a crucial step for students, so we worked with our school-based staff to create five short videos for students to provide FAFSA filing tips. CSF has teamed up with CollegeMapper.com (a free website that gives students a personalized plan for college admissions) to produce these videos. In order to kick off the start of FAFSA’s priority completion month, we’ll be sending a link this week to each video. To see the first of these videos explaining FAFSA and why it is so important for students to file, please click here for English and here for Spanish. You can share these videos with your students and families too!
