Produced by the financial aid office at UCSB, “7 Easy Steps to the FAFSA: A Student’s Guide to the Free Application for Federal Student Aid” is designed to help prospective students complete the 2013-14 FAFSA in seven clear and easy-to-understand steps. It can be found by clicking here.
The tutorial was recently awarded a Gold Star by the National Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators, a nonprofit membership organization focused primarily on student aid legislation, regulatory analysis, and training for financial aid administrators. The award recognizes innovation in the financial aid arena.
