Cochise College will offer free assistance in October for students and their families applying for financial aid to help pay for college next year. Our financial aid staff will provide information and professional help to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

High School seniors or students returning to college next year are encouraged to attend. Those who plan to complete the FAFSA at the event should bring their social security number, driver’s license and income information for last year. Students who are considered “dependents” will need to provide their parents’ financial information.
