The FAFSA is completely free to fill out and you should never pay anyone money to do it on your behalf. 你可以在以下网址免费提交FAFSA http://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa. If you are on a site that asks you to pay money, then you are at the wrong FAFSA site.

Simpson will offer all institutional scholarships for which you are eligible to receive at the time of preparing your financial aid notification. 我们有一个网站可以提供额外的奖学金，你可能有资格获得 http://13aug.net/internal/financial-aid/outside-scholarships-current-students

 如果你缺少任何额外的经济援助信息, we will first send a letter to your permanent home address requesting the information. 我们也会向您发送电子邮件提醒丢失的表格. You can also find missing forms on SC Connect under Self Service-Financial aid required documents.

If you or your family’s financial situation has changed, please contact our office. Some examples of special circumstances where you might contact our office include loss or change of job, high medical expenses not covered by health insurance or loss of child support.

 如果你是传统课程的新学生, 我们会在经济援助通知上估计你的自付费用, but you will also get an official statement from the Business Office before the semester starts. 请记住学院是按学期收费的, 因此，您将收到您注册的每个学期的帐单. If you are a returning student to the traditional program or a student in the C&G项目，你会收到商务办公室的对账单. You can always run a statement of account from the Business Office in SC Connect.

The cost of attendance is the estimated cost of attending Simpson for one academic year. 这一数额包括间接和直接费用. 这些只是估计，与你的账单不同. 欲了解更多信息，请参阅财政援助手册.

If you are interested in taking classes in the summer and using financial aid, 有一个单独的夏季经济援助表格需要填写. Please contact the Office of 金融援助 for a form or find the form on the website under FA forms.

奖学金和助学金是免费的，不需要偿还. Loans are money that you are borrowing that must be paid back with interest according to the terms of the promissory note you have signed

If your FAFSA is selected for verification the Office of 金融援助 will be sending you the appropriate worksheet and further instructions to complete the process. 

No, once you complete both forms you will not have to complete them again as long as you remain concurrently enrolled at Simpson.

No, when a student files the FAFSA we automatically offer that student federal loans. 如果你选择不接受这些贷款, you will need to reach out to the Office of 金融援助 and ask them to remove the loans from your account.

• Unsubsidized is a federal loan that will accrue interest as soon as it disburses onto your account, and will continue to accrue interest while you are in school regardless of enrollment status.
• Subsidized is a federal loan that does not accrue interest while the student is enrolled in school. Once the student graduates or drops less than half-time and goes through the 6-month grace period, 补贴贷款将开始计息.

这取决于并基于你的学分和你的依赖状态. 如果你是新生, 独立学生，你可以获得最高总额5美元,500美元和最高补贴贷款3美元,500. Independent freshmen students may borrow an additional $4,000 unsubsidized loan. 如果你是大二学生, 独立学生，你可以获得最高总额6美元,500美元，最高补贴4美元,500. Independent sophomore students may borrow an additional $4,000 unsubsidized loan. 如果你是大三/大四学生, 独立学生，你可以获得最高总额7美元,500美元和5美元的最高补贴贷款,500. Independent junior and senior students may borrow an additional $5,000 unsubsidized loan.

补贴贷款就是我们所说的“基于需求”的贷款. It is based upon the amount of financial need the student has and is calculated from the information on the FAFSA.

是的，你绝对可以! Please understand any payments made while in school will not count towards qualifying payments in a loan forgiveness program. You will also want to make sure your lender knows you are still registered full-time. Some lenders require extra documentation to prove enrollment when a student decides to start paying off loans while they are in school.
