Hey there! Don’t worry about finding financial aid, we are here to help! There’s a form called the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) that you’ll need to complete first for most opportunities. It’s used to figure out what federal, state, and sometimes college-specific financial aid you’re eligible for. Let us know if you have any questions or need help getting started!
KC’s code is 003580
Our Financial Aid Office has fantastic FAFSA Assistance resources, and we highly recommend you take advantage of them. If you need more guidance, don’t hesitate to reach out to the friendly folks at the Federal Student Aid Information Center. They’re available via live chat, phone, and email to provide any assistance you may need. Don’t let filling out the FAFSA be a daunting task – we’re here to support you every step of the way!
There are additional steps but we’ll be here to help you get there. After your FAFSA is completed, you’ll need to complete a KC application for admission, request your transcripts to be send to the KC Admissions Office, apply for Scholarships, and register for classes!
