Do you know: “On a subsidized loan, the federal government pays the interest on your loan while you’re in school. If you have an unsubsidized loan, you pay the interest starting with the first disbursement” (Financial Aid Guide: Loans and More, FastWeb).

FastWeb advises: “Submit a FAFSA, even if you don't think you qualify for aid. Being rejected for federal aid is sometimes a prerequisite for private awards” (Ten Great Financial Aid Tips).

A special welcome to our 128 new “experienced students” attending SUNY Fredonia for the first time this Spring.
