Deadline Approaches To Apply For State, Federal Financial Aid
Next Tuesday, March 10, marks the deadline for college-bound students in Indiana and across the U.S. to submit their Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA form. Colleges use information from the FAFSA to determine their scholarship awards – Indiana has nearly $300 million in state aid available this year – which is why Higher Education Commissioner Teresa Lubbers and her counterparts around the country are encouraging potential students to complete the form on time.
As the due date approaches, our colleagues with NPR’s Education team take a closer look at the form and how some lawmakers hope to simplify the application process.
