US Dept of Education - FAFSA - Free Application for Federal Student Aid

Description:

Provides financial aid to qualified students who apply using official FAFSA application form at www.FAFSA.ed.gov, not ".com". If you go to a ".com" site, you may be asked to pay to submit the FAFSA. Remember, the first F in "FAFSA" stands for "free", so use the official government site to submit application. Apply online or print off a paper form to complete and mail in if needed (FAFSA prefers the online form and it is processed quicker than the paper form). After printing, mail to: FAFSA, Federal Student Aid Programs, P.O. Box 7654, London, KY 40742-7654. Paper application form is also available in Spanish. FAFSA also offers a free smartphone app to allow students to apply by phone (myStudentAid app).
