Financial Aid (FAFSA/TASFA) Handout

• ​LCMHS Financial Aid Webpage
• ​How Financial Aid Works
• Create your Federal Student Aid Account (FSA ID) – The FSA ID is the user name and password students will use to access all Federal Student Aid websites, including FAFSA.gov. It takes about 10 minutes to create an account and set up an FSA ID. We strongly recommend getting FSA IDs ahead of time. For dependent students, at least one parent will also need to create an account and set up an FSA ID to sign the FAFSA.
