How do you get a college application fee waiver?

Fee waiver for college application question?

• Ok so my wants me to send the fee waiver paper accompanied by financial hardship documentation by mail. What is financial hardship documentation? Do i just sent the Fee waiver request form or do i include something else?

• Answer:

  A counselor at your high school should have the forms you need or be able to direct you to the forms and information you need. Seek out a HS counselor soon after classes start after the holiday break. Also, I have the sense you need to learn a lot, lot more about financial aid for college/univ. be sure to make an appointment with a HS counselor so you may learn the ins and outs of financial aid (scholarships, grants, and loans) and the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid - http://www.fafsa.ed.gov ) If just the one question you have posed is flumoxing you, then you will really be confused with many other aspects of applying for and obtaining financial aid. I believe you need to learn more about financial aid in general. To give you a start, I refer you to the articles in the links on this page from the well-respected US News and World Report Education Section on higher education FA: * http://www.usnews.com/education/best-colleges/paying-for-college Click on the links to all of the articles that seem to have titles that interest you. Read the info you find in full. This will be just the start of the kind of research and reading you will be expected to do as a college student. :-) Librarians--Ask Us, We Answer!
