In high school maybe twice a year we would get letters from different people saying, ‘Come to this workshop and we will help you find money for school’. And so me and my mom actually went to one. And they made it seem like the FAFSA would be so hard to fill out. So not long after that I was at the public library and I obtained a copy of that year’s FAFSA and me and my mom went through it. And it’s not hard at all. It’s simple and the instructions are there.
