It will take more than good luck and best intentions to pay for college. You need a plan of action, and it should begin with College Goal Sunday!

College Goal Sunday is a national event that provides free information and assistance to families who are filling out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid), the federally required form for students seeking financial aid, such and grants and loans. Completing the FAFSA is the first and most important step in qualifying for aid.

In Wisconsin, College Goal Sunday will take place on February 19-20, 2011 at 30 locations throughout the state.

Students should attend with a parent or guardian, if possible. They should bring specific materials. If parents are unable to attend, students may attend alone and bring these materials. Independent students may bring their own income and asset information.
