📣 Seniors & Parents – Let’s Talk About the FSA ID! 🎓💻

What is it?
👉 The FSA ID is your legal electronic signature for the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid).
👉 It lets you and your parent sign the FAFSA online, access your financial aid info, and make updates if needed.

Why is it important?
✅ Required to complete the FAFSA
✅ Gives you access to federal student aid
✅ Needed for both student AND one parent (for dependent students)

🔑 Pro tip: Create your FSA ID NOW so it’s ready before the FAFSA opens!
