FAFSA Workshops

Do you need help applying for financial aid? We’re here to help you apply for your FAFSA for the 2023-24 Academic year.

At this time, FAFSA Workshops are suspended due to the delay of the revised FAFSA for the upcoming 2024-2025 academic year.  The US Department of Education expects the FAFSA to be available sometime after December 1, 2023.  We will resume our workshops as soon as the new form is available.

If you need to complete a FAFSA for the current 2023-24 academic year, please reach out to the Financial Aid Office at 973-300-2225 to schedule an appointment.

For the 2023-24 FAFSA, you will need the following:

1. The student and parent must have access to their cell phones and email accounts.
2. The student must bring their driver’s license if they have one, and both student and parent should know their Social Security Number.
3. Bring all income documents with you such as:
   • 2021 tax return
   • W-2 forms
   • any untaxed income
   • balances for checking, savings, and any investment accounts such as CD’s or 529 Plans. No retirement accounts are necessary. 
   • If you own property in addition to your primary residence or rent out part of your primary residence you will need to know the current market value and current principal mortgage balance on your investment property.
