Filing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is the only way for students to receive federal aid for school, but many families struggle with the application or let common misconceptions keep them from applying.
We’ve teamed up with Embark to offer a free, streamlined experience to help families navigate the FAFSA, and prevent students from missing out on financial aid. Please let your students and families know that they can register for a free webinar to get more information about Embark by using the following links. This webinar will help them learn how to use this free tool when filing the FAFSA.

Borrow responsibly
We encourage students and families to start with savings, grants, scholarships, and federal student loans to pay for college. Students and families should evaluate all anticipated monthly loan payments, and how much the student expects to earn in the future, before considering a private student loan.
