Monroe Dispatch - No Struggle, No Progress

The University of Louisiana Monroe is hosting a “FAFSA Frenzy” Open House on Monday, February 5, 2024, 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM. FAFSA Frenzy is a free event to help high school and transfer students fill out their FAFSA applications. Students are encouraged to come to the lobby of ULM’s Sandel Hall, 4020 Northeast Dr. in Monroe any time between 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM on February 5, 2024. Staff from ULM’s Recruitment and Financial Aid departments will be on hand to help students navigate the form.

FAFSA stands for Free Application for Federal Student Aid. Completing the form allows high school students to know what types of financial aid for which they qualify. Each student will need to bring their FSA ID information for themselves and their parent or guardian, 2022 tax return and W-2 information for the student and their parent or guardian. Students and parents are also welcome to bring any questions they may have. While not required, students are encouraged to bring a laptop if possible.

“ULM wants to make sure that no student leaves any money on the table,” said Erica Hopko, ULM Associate Director of Customer Service and Outreach. “We will help you fill out the FAFSA so that college can be more affordable,” she said. For more information about FAFSA Frenzy, contact the ULM Department of Financial aid at (318) 342-5320 or [email protected].

Snacks and popcorn will be provided. For more information about the FAFSA, visit studentaid.gov.
