Attend FAFSA Frenzy Workshop Before April Deadline
FAFSA Frenzy workshops are offered across the state to assist students in completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) application. If your child is a senior in high school or already attending college or plans to return to college in the fall, attending a FAFSA Frenzy workshop is a step in the right direction.
The FAFSA is required by most colleges and universities as part of their application process even if a student does not need financial aid or plan to borrow money. Completing the FAFSA will make students eligible for grants and scholarships, student loans, Federal Work-Study awards, and more.
In February, Southwest Tennessee Community College is holding FAFSA Frenzy events on its campuses where students can ask questions and get help completing the FAFSA to meet the application deadline. Tuesday, April 15, 2025, is the last day for Tennessee Promise students to submit the FAFSA application to receive the scholarship for the 2025/2026 school year. Completing the FAFSA application is also a requirement to remain eligible for students who applied for the TN Promise scholarship.
Suggested items for the student and parents to bring to a workshop to make completing the application easier are the following:
- Social Security Number(s)
- Driver’s License (if any)
- Current information on checking and savings account balances; stock, bond, and other investments; and business and farm assets
- Student’s FSA ID (apply for your FSA ID)
- Parent’s FSA ID (apply for your FSA ID)
If you do not have all of these items, you may still attend a FAFSA Frenzy workshop. Attending a workshop is not required to complete the form. The workshops are held to assist students and parents who may be unfamiliar with the FAFSA process and the opportunities it offers students. The workshops are free and you do not have to be a current or prospective student of the college or university where you attend a workshop. You may also complete the FAFSA application online at home by visiting the website.
