Jefferson to Hold Advising and Financial Aid
Completion Day on July 23 for Accepted Students
Watertown, NY — Jefferson
Community College (JCC) will host an Advising and Financial Aid
Completion Day on Thursday, July 23, 2026, from 12:00
to 3:00 p.m. in the Jules Center (Building 6) Commons to
help accepted students complete the final steps needed to enroll for the
fall 2026 semester, which begins August 24, 2026. Space is limited and
registration is required.
The event is for
students who have been accepted to Jefferson but have not yet registered
for classes or completed the Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA). During the event, students will receive one-on-one assistance
completing the FAFSA, meet with an academic advisor, and register for fall
classes.
Completing the
FAFSA is one of the most important steps in the enrollment process. The
FAFSA determines eligibility for federal and state grants, scholarships,
work-study opportunities, and student loans. Even students who believe they
may not qualify for financial aid are strongly encouraged to complete the
FAFSA, as many are surprised to learn they are eligible for financial
assistance.
Students
attending the event should bring the following information:
·
Their verified FSA ID (username and password)
·
Parent or spouse contributor's name, date of birth,
Social Security number, and email address (if applicable)
·
Income and asset information (if required)
For more
information and to register, visit www.sunyjefferson.edu or
contact Jefferson Enrollment Services at (315) 786-2437. Accepted students
who have not yet registered for fall semester classes should schedule an
appointment online at www.sunyjefferson.edu/advising.
