Well? Have you?
No?
Come on, get moving!
Seriously, the FAFSA for the 2010-2011 school year has been available for 45 days! This one form has the potential to save you thousands on college expenses. Do not pass it up!
The reason it’s so important to fill it out ASAP is because aid is distributed first come, first serve. Some schools have deadlines of February 15th (TODAY!), so you need to get it filled out.
The form is available here. You and your parent(s) also need to apply for a PIN here. If your parents haven’t gotten their taxes back yet, don’t worry. Just use their last tax return and then remember to update the numbers when they get their current tax return back.

Don’t forget the good news… The Department of Education has implemented new “Skip-logic” technology that eliminates unnecessary questions from your FAFSA. So.. you should be able to get it done in record time!
