Financial Aid

Financial Aid is available to eligible students enrolled in credit programs at Ogeechee Technical College to help pay educational costs.

The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) should be completed even if a person is not sure that financial aid will be needed–as it is free. The Financial Aid Office recommends the completion of the FAFSA online at www.fafsa.ed.gov. When applying online, there is less paperwork and results are faster. If a paper copy of the FAFSA is desired, one can be obtained by calling the U.S. Department of Education at 800.433.3243.

Helpful Hints for Applying

  • Complete all required forms by the appropriate deadlines.
  • Complete all questions accurately; estimate if necessary to meet early deadlines.
  • File FAFSA early and online for faster results. Keep a photocopy of all documents.
  • Use the full legal name (no nicknames) on all applications.
  • The name on the application must match the name on the Social Security card.
