Important Financial Aid Information
http://www2.eac-easci.org/welcome.shtml
This site is for information on college or technical school selection and
financial aid. It will link you to many of the other necessary sites such as
the fafsa site and the pin number site.
http://www.studentaid.ed.gov
This site is for filing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
online. Students who apply online will get their application results 7 to
14 days faster than if they mail a paper FAFSA. Because there are
deadlines to meet regarding the FAFSA it is recommended that you file
online.
http://www.fafsa.ed.gov
This site is where students and parents can request a Personal
Identification Number (PIN). The PIN may be used as an electronic
signature for FAFSA on the Web, Renewal FAFSA and Corrections on
the Web, and to access the National Student Loan Data System. You
will be assigned a PIN automatically when you submit your FAFSA for
the first time; however, if you request a PIN prior to submitting a FAFSA
for the first time you do not have to mail in a signature page and the
process will be much quicker for you. Request this PIN as soon as
possible so that you are ready for the January FAFSA completion.

This site contains Funding Your Education and The Student Guide
which both give students and parents information about
student aid.
