FAFSA/Financial Aid Information Nights set for October 9, 17 Did you know that the deadline to complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is now in October? Did you also know that whether or not you think your child qualifies for federal student aid, it's recommended that you complete the form each year because colleges and universities use the information to help determine whether students qualify for other types of financial aid? Davison students have two opportunities to learn about the FAFSA and how to complete the form. Join Baker College Vice President for Student Services Gerald McCarty and DHS Counselors at the annual Davison High School FAFSA/Financial Aid Information Night at 6 p.m. Tuesday, October 9. A general session is planned at 6 p.m. in the auditorium and is geared toward parents of 9-12th graders. Stay for the second session at 6:30 p.m. and Mr. McCarty will give you step by step instructions as you complete your student s FAFSA form. Don't forget to bring your 2016 tax forms and social security and driver's license numbers for both you and your student.
