FAFSA Campaign Series: StudentAid.ed.gov Content

With the start of each new calendar year, we begin our task of creating a successful campaign encouraging students to file the FAFSA, and preferably file early. This week we’ll continue to provide resources that can assist you as you continue with this year’s campaign.

Using StudentAid.ed.gov Content to Promote FAFSA Completion

Federal Student Aid provides lots of information on their StudentAid.ed.gov site that can make your FAFSA Campaign easier. There’s no need to reinvent the wheel for some of the most common general questions.
