Message: Message: Message: Message: Message: Message: Message:Federal Work-Study provides part-time jobs for undergraduate and graduate students with financial need, allowing them to earn money to help pay education expenses.

If you were awarded Federal Work-Study, work with your school to find a work-study job. Federal Work-Study funds are paid directly to you, the student, but you must work to earn the money. It is not given to you automatically. Find out more: http://1.usa.gov/123sp9u

When it's time to complete the FAFSA, make sure to complete it as soon as possible. States, schools, and the federal government each have deadlines for you to meet in order to receive financial aid, so the earlier you complete the FAFSA, the better. http://1.usa.gov/TKiDG9

There are many places where you can get FREE help completing your FAFSA. Some ideas: - The financial aid office at your college or the college(s) you're thinking about attending - The FAFSA's online help at fafsa.gov - The Federal Student Aid Information Center: StudentAid.gov/contact

If you are asked for your credit card information while filling out the FAFSA online, you are not at the official government site. Remember, the FAFSA site address has .gov in it! www.fafsa.gov

Federal student aid is available to U.S. citizens and eligible noncitizens. The most common category of eligible noncitizen is that of permanent resident, but there are other categories as well. Find out if you qualify: http://1.usa.gov/XKKNUm

Even if you or your parents have not completed your taxes yet, you can still submit the FAFSA using income estimates. Just remember to go in and correct your FAFSA once you've filed. http://1.usa.gov/TMlD3T

If you're interested in financial aid for college or career school, you're going to need to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid or FAFSA. It takes most people about 30 minutes to complete online--and the best part is that it's 100% FREE. It provides you with access to grants, loans, and work-study funds from the federal government. Plus, many colleges and states use FAFSA information to provide their own college or state financial aid. Some aid is first come, first served, so make sure to complete the FAFSA early. The FAFSA can be completed online at fafsa.gov and help is provided throughout the online application process. www.fafsa.gov
