Chaminade University will offer free workshops statewide to assist Hawai‘i students and their families with completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
Open to all students regardless of their college or career school plans, these workshops aim to make the financial aid process accessible and stress-free, empowering families to focus on their educational aspirations.
The FAFSA is a critical step in securing financial aid, and determining eligibility for federal, state, and institutional funding.
With expert guidance from Chaminade’s Financial Aid and Admissions staff, participants will receive step-by-step assistance to ensure their applications are completed accurately and on time.
