FAFSA

It is that time of the year, FAFSA time! Most of you are probably very familiar with the FAFSA because of undergrad. Some of you might think, oh they aren't going to give me any money for attending a professional school. Which yes, you most likely aren't going to get any government aid, but is still very important that you continue to fill out the FAFSA if you are planning to attend veterinary school. The FAFSA also allows you to get certain types of special loans and It is also a benefit to fill out the FAFSA because veterinary schools look at this form when they are considering people for scholarships. Schools want to be able to help out those who are in financial need and a lot of the scholarships out there for veterinary schools have a "financial need" factor. So, even though it might be a pain to fill out it will help you in the long run!

Tip***
Make sure to get the correct Financial Aid Code for each of your veterinary schools that you applied to for the FAFSA. This will allow the schools to access your FAFSA and takes it into consideration. I will be compiling all of these codes on my website under the Funds Page so take a look there if you need help.
