In light of this year’s FAFSA changes, we want to help bring our students and their families as many opportunities as possible to receive assistance in completing the FAFSA application. This does not replace your FAFSA Completion event but rather is an added resource if needed by your students and families.
Take a look at the attached 2024 Virtual FAFSA Completion Assistance event. It is also posted on the Apply KS Facebook page.
There is a plethora of resources located on the KBOR FAFSA Resources page.
