Process SAR

If you submitted your FAFSA form early, you should receive your Student Aid Report (SAR) from the US Dept. of Education indicating your eligibility for financial aid. Make any corrections to the report and return it to the FAFSA processor.

If you haven't submitted your FAFSA, you need to do so quickly to meet important college financial aid deadlines.

Monthly checkup:

• Make sure your High School sends all necessary transcripts and grades to your colleges of choice. Check with your guidance counselor for assistance.
• Check to see if all of your application materials have been sent. Contact the admissions office of the college(s) to which you have applied to make sure they have everything.
