College Aid
Funds Deadlines CTmn
Students planning to continue
their edfjcations beyond high school
next fall should complete Financial
Aid forms within the next few weeks
if they wish to receive consideration
for all forms of financial aid. That's
the advice of Robert Long, coordina-
tor of the West Virginia Higher Edu-
cation Grant Program.
"The West Virginia Financial, Aid
Form (FAF) should be filed as early
as possible but not later than Febru-
ary 22 to be considered on time for
the state grant and for most colleges
in West Virginia," explained Mr
Long. "Forms received by the New
Jersey-based College. Scholarship
Service after March 1, are consid-
ered late and will be placed in a
lower priority group, thus reducing
state grant possibilities," he added.
According to Mr Long, students
who file after the march 1 deadline
can still receive financial aid, but are
more likely to receive a great~,r por-
tion of loans than they would have if
deadlines were met. Families who
will not submit income tax returns
until April t5 are encouraged to use
estimates of 1989 income instead of
waiting to file the FAF until taxes are
completed.
State grant program records indi-
cate that 5400 students received
grants of $350 to $1640 from the
West Virginia Grant Program in the
1989-90 academic year. All of the
recipients were on-time fi~ers.
The West Virginia Financial Aid
Form may be obtained from the
state grant program, guidance of-
rices, and colleges throughout the
state. It is the application for aid
from federal, state, and college
sources. For more information about
how to apply for financial aid, stu-
dents are encouraged to call their
nearest college or University or the
West Virginia Higher Education
Grant Program, P. O. Box 4007,
Charleston 25364.

for her work during the past two

mitted to other officers. Newly-

ber, and December. Executive com-
mittee meetings will continue
