Will your students need help completing the FAFSA in 2016? CGS!Florida (College Goal Sunday Florida) is a statewide initiative coordinated by the Office of Student Financial Assistance (OSFA) to provide free, professional help with completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
Dozens of CGS!Florida events will take place at high schools, colleges and universities across the state in January and February next year. Although students can complete the FAFSA application throughout the year, many colleges and universities have earlier deadlines for institutional financial aid. Research shows students who complete the FAFSA in January, February or March receive twice as much state and institutional aid as students who fill out the form later. Students and their families can attend CGS!Florida events to complete the FAFSA on-site and receive other helpful information regarding the college financial aid process. A full list of CGS!Florida host sites are available here.
