Financial Aid Update Presented By: Kevin McCrary, Dean

The Fall 2015 scholarship deadline is approaching!

• Encourage all students to apply!

• The DSC Writing Center can provide essay writing tips/assistance!

The FSA ID is the new PIN!

If you’re a student, parent, or borrower and you’re logging in to a U.S. Department of Education (ED) website – like fafsa.gov, the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS®) at www.nslds.ed.gov, StudentLoans.gov, StudentAid.gov, and Agreement to Serve (ATS) at teach-ats.ed.gov – you will be asked to create new log-in credentials known as the FSA ID.

The FSA ID – a username and password – benefits you in four ways:

• It removes your personally identifiable information (PII), like your Social Security number, from your log-in credentials

• It creates a more secure and efficient way to verify your information when you log in to access to your federal student aid information online

• It gives you the ability to easily update your personal information, like your phone number, e-mail address, or your name

• It allows you to easily retrieve your username and password by requesting a secure code be sent to your e-mail address or by answering challenge questions
