FAFSA Completion Night for Seniors
FAFSA Completion Night (Class of 2024): January 29th 6:00pm, NBHS Cafeteria Attendees will be given information on how to obtain an FSA ID and ISAC staff will be available to answer individual questions and troubleshoot any issues. An FSA ID is required for an individual to sign a FAFSA electronically and to electronically transfer to the FAFSA the income and tax information submitted to the IRS. By using an FSA ID, it increases data entry accuracy and can expedite the completion and submission of a FAFSA. An FSA ID can be created by all students and parents with a social security number.
