STEP TWO:
APPLY FOR STUDENT FINANCIAL AID
If you are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident and plan to apply for financial aid, you and your parents should complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and submit it to the federal processor. FAFSA forms are available on the web at www.fafsa.ed.gov, at the Averett University Office of Student Financial Assistance, high schools, community colleges or public libraries. Averett University's Title IV code for the FAFSA is 003702.

Several weeks after you submit the FAFSA, you will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR). Check the SAR carefully for errors. If corrections need to be made, send them in as soon as possible. Also, mail any requested documents to the Financial Assistance Office. An award notification cannot be sent until all requested forms have been received.

Need help? You have a financial aid counselor. To contact your counselor via e-mail, go to Averett.edu and click on financial aid or call 1-800-AVERETT (283-7388), extension 5890 to schedule an appointment.
