FAFSA首次申报-概述视频

你是纽约州居民吗? Do you plan to attend MCC either full- or part-time? You can apply for the New York State 学费 Assistance program (TAP) or 援助 for Part-Time Study (APTS) program. 这两笔赠款是通过 高等教育服务公司(HESC).

MCC的TAP代码是2180. If you’re not a New York State resident, skip to Step 4.

全职 – TAP is a grant for students meeting residence, 收入, academic or other requirements. 当你在网上完成FAFSA时, 你会在FAFSA网站上看到一个链接, so you can complete the NYS Express TAP Application (ETA). If you fill out a paper FAFSA, you’ll be sent your ETA by mail.

Keep in mind that getting your official TAP notification will take three to eight weeks. You can check the status of your TAP application via the 我的HESC帐户访问权限 页面.

兼职 – If you’re planning to attend MCC part-time and meet residence, 收入, 学历及其他要求, you can apply for a grant through the New York State 援助 for Part-Time Study (APTS) program. You can get an application at one of the MCC 金融援助 办公室 or download one from our 形式 页面.

  • Deadlines for the APTS – Submit your completed application to the MCC 金融援助 Office prior to the deadlines indicated on the application:
    • 秋季学期 -通常在八月中旬
    • 春季学期 -通常在一月中旬

You’ll receive your award notification approximately six to eight weeks after the application deadline. 得到 更多的信息 有关APTS计划.

在你的FAFSA被处理之后, you'll receive a Student 援助 Report (SAR) either by email or through the mail, depending on whether you filed an electronic or paper application.

The SAR uses your FAFSA information to determine your estimated family contribution (EFC). Your EFC is the money your family can contribute to help you pay for college. MCC subtracts your EFC from the cost of attendance to figure out your financial need.

一定要检查SAR的准确性. 你可以对你的 FAFSA应用程序. 如果你是通过邮件收到你的特别行政区, 在你的论文SAR上做修改, then sign and return it to the address on your SAR.

Once the corrections are processed, you’ll receive a revised SAR. Be sure to keep a copy of your SAR for your records

If there is an error in or a verification issue with your FAFSA, the MCC 金融援助 Office will contact you via your MCC email address. We may need additional information to correct these problems before your financial aid can be finalized and applied to your account. 所以,请每天查看MCC的邮件.
