Details from JCC:

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) typically becomes available for students in January of every year, except this year when the application became available October 1, three months earlier than previous years. As a result Jefferson Community College (JCC) will hold its local Financial Aid Day in conjunction with SUNY’s statewide Financial Aid Day on Saturday, November 12, 2016 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in Room 6-218 Jules Center (Building 6). Check-in will begin at 8:45 a.m. Attendees who plan to submit their FAFSA online are highly encouraged to arrive by 11:30 a.m. in order to have ample time to complete the form and submit.

SUNY Financial Aid Day is open to students who anticipate attending SUNY Jefferson or any other SUNY institution. During Financial Aid Day, prospective SUNY students will have the opportunity to get their questions answered about higher education funding opportunities including loans, grants, student employment and scholarships.

The agenda will include a financial aid presentation at 10:00 a.m. for anyone interested in an overview of the FAFSA form and how to apply. JCC’s computer lab will be open for students ready to obtain their federal student aid (FSA) ID and/or ready to enter their FAFSA form online. JCC financial aid staff will be on hand to answer questions and assist.

Students may register for SUNY Financial Aid Day online at www.suny.edu/studentevents. For more information, contact Jefferson’s financial services office at 315-786-2355.
