Dear Senior and Parent/Guardian,
Families planning on applying for financial aid should review the emails sent to both students and parents on 24-25 FAFSA information in December and early January.
If a student or family would like support in completing the FAFSA, we encourage you to attend the Highland Park High School FAFSA Completion Workshop on Wednesday, January 31 from 4-7:30 pm in the Library Classrooms at HPHS (enter through the H entrance). Please note that no new FAFSA forms will be started after 7:00 pm. Families are encouraged to attend with their students and to bring their own devices; we will have a limited number of Chromebooks available, if needed. There will be a financial aid expert from the Illinois Student Assistance Commission available to answer all FAFSA related questions.
New for the 24-25 FAFSA - Both the student and each parent will need an FSA ID
* Students and parents must each have a verified FSA ID to complete the FAFSA. Plan on setting up your FSA ID at https://studentaid.gov/fsa-id/create-account/launch at least one week prior to completing the FAFSA and/or before attending HPHS' FAFSA completion workshop since it will take some time for the verification process.
