Attention Juniors and Seniors- what to hear the latest news on how to fill out the new FAFSA form?
Central will be hosting a live Financial Aid night! On October 11th at 6:00 pm an ICAN (Iowa College Aid Network) representative will be in the school's Auditorium to talk about completing your FAFSA form for financial aid, answering your questions about paying for college, and helping you understand your next steps.
Seniors- the ICAN rep will help you and your parents set up your FSA ID number if you have not done so already. It is very important this year to have your FSA ID number prior to the FAFSA opening in December.
If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Angela Bergan, anbergan@central.k12.ia.us, or call 563-245-1750.
