Here is a list of our various activities, as well as the sponsor's contact information. Start today! GET INVOLVED!!
ATTENTION 2011-2012 SENIORS
TJC’s FREE FAFSA Night is Here!!
February 27, 2012 at LHS in Lab 121 at 6pm
Financial aid representatives will be available to guide you through the entire process of completing the FAFSA.Reservation is required because space is limited. Please see Mrs. Hodges or email your request to: hodgestc@lind.sprnet.org including your student’s name and number of people attending. She will email you confirmation of your reservation. *Remember you MUST have filed our taxes (preferably electronically).
What You Need to Bring to the Workshop:
· Parent and Student
· Social Security Number and Driver’s License
· All Student 2011 1040 Tax Form and 2011 W-2 form(s)
· All Parent(s) 2011 1040 Tax Form and 2011 W-2 form(s) – if dependent
· Any untaxed income year end statements for 2011 such as child support received, veteran’s non-education benefits, etc.
Financial Aid announcement: The big push with the 12-13 FAFSA is that parents and students should transfer their tax data into the FAFSA using the data transfer/retrieval option. If the IRS transfer option is not used and the tax return document is required by the school, then the student/parent must get a tax return transcript directly from the IRS which means that they cannot turn in a copy of their return. This is a HUGE change and will be very inconvenient for families. It CAN all be avoided if the tranfer option is used. Please contact the financial aid office of the school you plan to attend for more details.
Seniors attending Texas A&M in the fall of 2012 are now required to take a Math Placement Exam. See attachment for details and/or check out newaggie.tamu.edu.

Here is the 2011-2012 (LAST YEAR) FAFSA on the WEB Worksheet. (Have not seen the 2012-2013 version; Will post as soon as we are aware). These pages are utilized to help you review all of the questions and necessary paperwork and records that will be needed in order to complete the real FAFSA that will be available on January 1, 2012. FAFSA is the financial aid paperwork that must be completed in order to receive federal financial aid.
