Hello OTQ Seniors. Just a reminder that the FAFSA opened up on OCTOBER 1. Going through the FAFSA process generates an "EFC" # that is then used to prioritize the level of financial assistance a school can offer to you from what's left after handling those who submitted before you. It does not provide any guarantees that funds will be left at any given school. Many to most student athletes utilize combinations of financial aid (from admissions), merit aid (from academic evaluators), and athletic aid (sports scholarships). Some will utilize state and federal grants and/or loans as well.

It is valuable to know your EFC # to help you make decisions about where to apply based on affordability of the NET PRICE calculators that vary from school to school and can be found on their websites.

When choosing schools to apply to,....... SHOOT FOR THE MOON, even if you miss, you'll still be among the stars!! If you can dream it, you can do it. And if you can look ahead, you'll see more choices
