Financing Your Education Workshops for 2009/2010

FAFSA WEDNESDAYS!!

What is financial aid and will I be eligible? 

Is it too late to apply for financial aid?

If not, how do I apply for financial aid?

What other options are available to finance my education?

If you are asking yourself any of the questions listed above, then you should attend one of the workshops being presented by the Financial Aid Office. Each Wednesday, through the end of April, application workshops will be held on each campus in the afternoon at 12:30 and the evening at 6pm. Please contact your campus Financial Aid Office to reserve a seat and find out the location of the workshop. Call the Bedford office at 781-280-3650 or Lowell at 978-656-3242.

Open to all students and their parents, the workshops will guide you in filling out the 2009/2010 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and provide you with information regarding sources of financial aid.

If you would like help with filling out the FAFSA, bring the following 2008 income documents to the information sessions:

• 2008 U.S. income tax return—IRS Form 1040, 1040A or 1040EZ.
• W-2 Forms and other records of money earned in 2008.
• Records of 2008 untaxed income such as Social Security Benefits, Workers’ Compensation, or Welfare.
• If you are under 24 years of age, the same documentation is required for your parents.
  Please be sure to complete as much of the FAFSA as possible prior to the workshop.

Workshops will begin on time.  Please arrive promptly.
