Step 1 to Graduate Debt Free: Complete the FAFSA!

A college education is not out of reach during this global crisis. Apply for federal student aid for help paying your tuition with the FAFSA! Have it sent directly to FSW by using school code 001477.

Don't let changes in circumstance hold you back!
If you have experienced the loss of a job, a large reduction in income, or extraordinary medical expenses since filing the FAFSA, a petition for change of circumstance (reevaluation of financial aid you can receive) can be filed with FSW after you send us your FAFSA.

Step 2 to Graduate Debt Free: Apply for FSW Scholarships  

FSW offers many merit and need based scholarships for students making a degree from FSW even more affordable! Apply for our scholarships as an admitted FSW student.
