FAFSA for grad school?

Hello all! I’m considering grad school, I’m just not sure how to pay for it. Did you file FAFSA? If not, how come and where do you suggest I go for aid instead?

schools may require FAFSA for federal loans. But its a simple form since you are considered independent, so no parental info required. And if you have zero income/assets…

MA/MS programs are cash cows for a Uni. Some will enable you to earn money by TA or Research, but those positions are limited in number. Otherwise, expect to self-pay, either by your own cash or GradPlus loans.

Good PhD programs are fully funded. Do not attend a PhD program that is not fully funded.

What kind of graduate school are you considering?
