Students and their parents can receive help filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), which will be submitted automatically through the internet. By filling out the application, students can learn whether they qualify for grants, scholarships, loans, and work-study funds.

Students who are 23 years old or younger, single and have no dependents should bring a parent. Parents can attend with their student or come in their place. Both students and parents should bring their 2018 tax-return forms, student and parent’s social security numbers, W-2 forms, or other income information. Students who are 24 years old or older, married or have dependents, serving in the military or have served, can attend without a parent and should bring their own 2018 tax-return forms, W-2 forms, or other income information.

Information about accessing scholarships will be available. Students do not need to bring anything to support their scholarship applications but can learn more details at www.cochise.edu and follow up with questions at the event.
