BCPS to host FAFSA Frenzy to help parents seek financial aid for college

FAFSA College Student Financial AidNow is the time for parents of graduating high school seniors to complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid).

All federal grant and loan awards are determined by this free application, and nearly all colleges use the FAFSA as the basis for their own financial aid awards.

To help more seniors and their families complete the FAFSA, Baltimore County Public Schools will be hosting FAFSA Frenzy events at all high schools. In addition, all seniors and parents will be welcome at two systemwide FAFSA Frenzy events.

BSPC is encouraging parents to use the federal student aid website to get started, and then plan to attend one of the FAFSA Frenzy events listed below.
