Money, Saving, Generosity, and this Year’s FAFSA
Each year, money problems haunt countless college students. Financial awareness regarding personal savings, generosity, and college financial aid help keep them on track. In this episode, Dr. Riley (from collegeapp101.com) offers tips for personal savings, generosity, and college financial aid, specifically the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid). Indeed, if college students (including college bound seniors) want a financial aid package from their prospective college, they must complete the FAFSA at studentaid.gov prior to their college's financial aid deadline.
