The FAFSA Walkthrough walks students and families through the entire FAFSA by section, outlining what information is necessary, detailing common pain points, and discussing how to answer questions. This presentation also gives a bit of insight into what comes after the FAFSA by discussing the financial aid timeline, plus briefly introducing the FAFSA Submission Summary (formerly called SAR) and verification. We also provide opportunities for Q&A and follow-up support.
