College Students!!!!

It is a month and a few days before schools starts. All college students make sure you have filled out your FASFA.(Free Application for Federal Student Aid) http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/ Filling out the FASFA form determines how much federal aid such as, unsubsidized and subsidizes and or  pell grants you will receive for the upcoming school semesters based on your and or parents tax returns. (W-2) By now all of those forms should have been completed. Between now and the next few weeks for students living up north, payment for school is due. Hopefully financial aid can cover all costs; if not there are other options you can explore. For students who can pay monthly you set up a payment plan through tuition management system. @ afford.com <--- They are very helpful I have used that service my first three years of college. Or of course there is Sallie  Mae loans services or other private loans you can contact.  If you can not pay for school and do not know what to do, meet with your financial aid counselors. That is what they are their for, you pay them to help and guide you through your college career. Remember to stay on top of your financial aid obligations and forms. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE. I am also a college student and I know how hard it can be. Be smart and handle your priorities before it is too late.
