Join us for Financial Aid Night at Midwest Central High School:

Wednesday, September 30th

We are hosting this the night before FAFSA officially opens so you can get the information you need, understand the process, and hopefully have a little more mental security when it’s time to sit down and complete it.

And if you’d rather fill it out with some help, we’ve got you covered!

Wednesday, October 7th
5:30 PM

Our ISAC representative will be back for a FAFSA Working Session! Bring your questions, your laptop, and your information, and you can work through the FAFSA with someone there to help you along the way.
