FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is the application that allows a student to apply for federal grants, loans, and work-study programs. All Utah colleges and universities accept the FAFSA to apply for federal financial aid. The application is completed online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
Important Note: Parents and students should be careful of sites that use FAFSA in their URL. The FAFSA application is FREE. If the site you go to attempts to charge you for the application, you are not at the government's official site. To be sure you are at the official site, use the links shown above. And, don't forget your PIN! Both parent and student need separate PINs so that they can electronically sign and access information about their FAFSA application.
Selective Service Registration
Registration by all 18-year-old males with Selective Service is required by law. In order for any male student to receive financial aid from the U.S. Government he must be registered with Selective Service within 30 days of his 18th birthday. |
