Tips for Completing the 2007-08 FAFSA
***Complete the FAFSA on the Web. It's secure, quick, and easy.***
Before You Begin:
Access Before Beginning a FAFSA Overview on the FAFSA Web Site
Review all instructions to determine what documents and information you need to gather in order to ensure that your U.S. Department of Education FAFSA is complete and accurate. We suggest that you print the FAFSA on the Web Worksheet before you actually begin entering your information on the FAFSA on the Web.
Review Aid Application Completion Dates
If possible, complete all 2006 Federal Income Tax Returns before completing the FAFSA.
If you (and your parents, if applicable) cannot complete your 2006 Federal Income Tax Returns before the Penn State recommended completion dates (to receive maximum consideration for all student aid programs) or Pennsylvania and other state grant deadlines, use estimated tax information.
