Applying for Federal Loans

To apply for the FAFSA, you’ll need three main things:

Personal Information:

  • Your Social Security number (SSN): This is used to verify your identity and link your tax information to the FAFSA form.
  • Federal Student Aid (FSA) ID: This is your username and password for accessing Federal Student Aid’s website and online services. You can create an FSA ID for free at StudentAid.gov.
  • Driver’s license (optional): This can be helpful for identity verification, especially if you haven’t established a credit history yet.

Financial Information:

  • Federal tax information: This could be your IRS W-2 forms, your tax return transcript, or your actual tax return. You can use the Data Retrieval Tool on the FAFSA website to automatically transfer your tax information from the IRS.
  • Current asset information: This includes the current balances of your savings and checking accounts, as well as the value of any investments, such as stocks, bonds, and real estate (excluding your primary residence).
  • Income information (if applicable): If you have any untaxed income, such as child support received, you’ll need to report it on the FAFSA.

School Information:

  • Your Social Security number (SSN): This is used to verify your identity and link your tax information to the FAFSA form.

Most Common Aid Options:

Pell Grant

    The Pell Grant is a need-based federal grant that provides financial assistance that does not require repayment. Awarded based on your financial need, this grant aims to make education more accessible.

Subsidized Loans

    Subsidized loans are need-based, with the government covering the interest while you are in school, during the grace period, and during deferment. This provides you with a financial advantage, as the interest does not accrue during these periods. Eligibility is determined based on financial need.

Unsubsidized Loans

    Unsubsidized loans, on the other hand, are not need-based, and interest begins accruing from the time the loan is disbursed. While you have the option to defer interest payments until after graduation, choosing to pay interest while in school can save you money in the long run.

GI Bill® Educational Benefits

    As a certified institution by the Department of Veterans Affairs, we proudly offer educational benefits under the GI Bill®. Veterans and their eligible family members can take advantage of this support. Learn more about the process and eligibility on the official U.S. government website.

Tips for Finding Scholarships:

  • Start your search early – many scholarships have deadlines months before the program starts.
  • Read the eligibility criteria carefully – ensure you meet all the requirements before applying.
  • Apply to multiple scholarships – increasing your chances of receiving funding.
  • Keep your applications organized – track deadlines and requirements for each scholarship.
  • Proofread your applications– typos or errors can disqualify you.

Some scholarships are even available to students who are already enrolled in beauty school, so we recommend to keep searching for options that you may be able to apply for!
