Admissions Advice
[edited]

FAFSA opens on October 1, is there anything that I need to do prior that date. What documents should I have on hand?

What is FAFSA? What should I expect, how do I ensure that I get it done as quickly as possible? Please help, I'm a first generation student, therefore I have no idea what to do.
