FAFSA
The FAFSA opens on October 1st. Every senior should fill this out, even if you don't think you have a chance. This is free money. Some colleges require you to fill this out before they will offer you any scholarships.
You and your parents will have to obtain an FSA ID in order to fill out the FAFSA. It takes a few days for your FSA ID to get verified. Once you have your FSA ID you fill out your FAFSA.
AHS SENIOR TIMELINE INFORMATION

SCHOLARSHIP INFORMATION
There are 3 main types of scholarships you can apply for:
- National and State
- Local
- School Specific
National and State scholarships are everywhere. There is a scholarship for almost anything you can think of. You just need to be willing to do the work to look for them. As I get scholarships sent to me I will put them on the Scholarship Rack and send out a Remind letting students know about them.
Local scholarships will start getting sent to us second semester. I will put the scholarships on the Scholarship Rack and send out a Remind.
School Specific scholarships are specific to whatever school you are applying to. Most schools have it set up to when you apply for admission you are automatically applying for their scholarships. However, check with the school, because they do not all do this. You can only use those scholarships if you attend that school. Most of their deadlines are in January or February, but again it varies by school, so check with them.
