MHS has once again partnered with ISAC (Illinois Student Assistance Commission) to provide Seniors and their guardians with guidance in filling out the FAFSA. FAFSA Night will take place on Tuesday, January 24th from 6-8 pm in MHS Cafe. Please complete this form to RSVP for the event.
What is the FAFSA & why it's important? The Free Application for Federal Student Aid is a form completed by current and prospective college students in the United States to determine their eligibility for student financial aid. Completion of the FAFSA is a graduation requirement. IF you are not planning on attending college after high school then you can complete a non-participation form to satisfy the graduation requirement.
What should I bring to the event?
Since FAFSA is an online form, please bring a laptop or Chromebook to the event, as well as the following info:
• Your 2021 federal tax returns, W-2’s, and other records of money earned.
• Banking statements and records of investments
(if applicable).
• Records of untaxed income (if applicable).
• List of colleges you would like to attend.
Additional information you will need if you are
completing the FAFSA:
• Social Security Number. Be sure it is correct!
• Your Alien Registration Number, if you (student) are not a U.S. citizen.
• An FSA ID to sign electronically. (This can be created
beforehand at fsaid.ed.gov, or at the time of application).
