Hi All,Check it out - its that time of year when college applications are due. And once that happens, college acceptance letters should start rolling in.
With that in mind students - and their parents - might be well served by visiting the New York State Higher Education Services Corporation website from the New York State government. Click here to visit the site.
What does the site have you ask? Great question! Three major sections will help students. The first major section helps students prepare for college. There is a section on your 'High School Plan' which will help you determine what to do year-by-year to prepare for college. There is also a college fair calendar and a section on applying to college step-by-step.
Next is the 'How to Pay' for college. 22 NYS student financial programs are covered, federal financial aid is covered. Sections on filling out and completing the FAFSA and TAP applications are listed as well. There are also calculators, estimators and more on this section of the site.
Finally, the last section is called 'Repay' - paying off student loans. Finally, readers of this blog entry can use this site to find FAFSA completion events in our area - click here to go to the site.
Enjoy the site - and I hope the applying to college process is quick, painless and successful for you.
Regards,
Stu
