FAFSA - Free Application for Federal Student Aid

This critical financial form should now be available (after a bit of a delay this year). Get to work on filling this out and pay careful attention to the deadlines listed for each of your schools. Without submitting this form, you won’t be considered for need-based aid. There is a lot of information to be shared, take a deep breath and make sure you are well prepared/informed before you start the FAFSA application.  FAFSA will help you be able to afford college whether it is a community college, technical college or 4 year college.

2. It is very important for Seniors to take a look at all of these links.  It is a lot of information but important to read through it BEFORE they start the FAFSA application. They will need help from their parents/guardians due to information coming from the 2022 tax forms. 

Here is some information about the “Soft Launch” of the new form. There may be some periodic pauses that occur for site maintenance and updates. 

Visit the Financial Aid website created by the Anoka-Hennepin Career and College Specialists for more information.  

Here is what to know about the 2024-2025 FAFSA.

Coon Rapids High School is pleased to announce that we are introducing a new system Coon Rapids High School Career Center webpage called Scoir to help you navigate careers, college selection and application process.

 

Seniors were sent an email invitation on Sunday, September 10th at 6:30pm from Scoir. Please complete the registration steps found in the email as soon as possible. Once you are registered in Scoir, you will be able to receive emails from me on upcoming events, scholarships, etc as well as being able to send their transcripts and letter of recommendations.

 

Navigating through the college application process can be confusing and you may find the information helpful on the Coon Rapids High School Career Center webpage valuable. Students can also stop-in to the College and Career Center or schedule an appointment to get support. After you have joined, please follow colleges that might interest you or explore the career information within the program. Seniors will get guidance and more direction throughout the school year.

 

We are excited to introduce this new career and college platform to you, we feel confident that you will find Scoir helpful and easy to use.

 

As always, reach out with any questions. Happy to help!
