5 Ways to Fund Your LUEA Education

Start Here: Complete the FAFSA

 

Filling out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is your first step. Even if you’re not
eligible for a Pell Grant or federal loans (such as for certificate programs), many scholarships require
you to have a FAFSA on file.
