Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
Jefferson
Community College (JCC) will host a local Financial Aid Day on Saturday,
February 3, 2024, from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on the

The Free
Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) has recently undergone
significant changes after 30 to 40 years to streamline the process for
students and families. It determines eligibility for federal aid programs
such as work-study, loans, state, and school aid. All prospective college
students are encouraged to submit a FAFSA form. JCC's financial services
office representatives will be available on February 3 to answer questions
and assist.
To ensure ample
time for online Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and/or NYS
TAP applications, attendees should arrive no later than 11:00 a.m. Students
must bring necessary information, including parent or spouse contributor
details, social security numbers, email addresses, and copies of 2022
federal and state tax returns if applying for financial aid. Creating an
FSA ID is also required, which can be done in advance at https://studentaid.gov or
at Financial Aid Day.
Registration is
required. Register online at www.suny.edu/studentevents or
