* You must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form (www.fafsa.ed.gov) to receive your Federal Student Aid Report (SAR). This form can be completed as soon as January 1st of the year you plan to attend college. You can go back to your FAFSA to check status, make corrections to a processed FAFSA and get other information should your circumstances change. Four to six weeks after submitting your FAFSA, you will receive your Student Aid Report (SAR) which
summarizes the information you reported. (A sample SAR is available for your reference on our website at www.crawfordheritage.org/docs/CompletedSARsample.pdf.) Applications missing your SAR or other supporting documents will not be considered so please plan ahead! Contact your guidance counselor for more FAFSA information.
