The FAFSA report provides an analysis of a student’s resources under federal guidelines. Since federal financial aid programs have more favorable terms than alternative loan sources, students are encouraged to file a FAFSA to have their eligibility determined for these programs. Having a completed FAFSA on file may open opportunities to receive additional scholarships and/or grants. The FAFSA will be available on October 1, 2017, at 12:01 a.m. The priority deadline is March 1, 2018. All forms are at go.mcgeorge.edu/financialaid.
