FAFSA Requirement for Graduation
Earlier this year, Governor Murphy signed legislation requiring public school students to complete either the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or the New Jersey Alternative Financial Aid Application (NJAFAA) as a prerequisite to receiving a high school diploma. The law applies to the graduating classes of 2025, 2026, and 2027.
We will offer three financial aid workshops to assist families with completing the FAFSA.
Tuesday, December 17th- 6 pm Financial Aid Completion Night
