It will be held at Lake Geneva Badger High School on Wednesday, October 17, beginning promptly at 6 PM. This event is to inform parents, students and community members on FAFSA, as well as to provide lab time and assistance in completing the FAFSA. All who come and complete the survey will be registered into a drawing for one of 15 $1000 scholarships throughout the state. You will need the following items to complete your 2019-20 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). If you are considered a dependent student for financial aid purposes, you will also need these items for your parent(s).
- 2017 federal tax return and W2s
- 2017 untaxed income records, such as child support or veteran’s non-education benefits
- Information on savings, investments, business assets and farm assets (if applicable)

o The FSA ID is your signature, so it has to be unique to you and will be your FSA ID for life. o Every student and at least one parent of a dependent student will need an FSA ID. o If a parent already has an FSA ID or has more than one child attending college, the parent will use the same FSA ID to sign all applications, but each child must have his or her own FSA ID. o Each FSA ID user must have a unique mobile phone number and/or email address. It is highly recommended that a dependent student attend the event with a parent or guardian so the FAFSA can be submitted that evening.
