What is College Goal South Carolina?
College Goal South Carolina aims to increase the number of college-bound students completing the “Free Application for Federal Student Aid” (FAFSA). The FAFSA form is used to determine how much need a student has in order to meet the cost of college. The results of the FAFSA are used in determining student grants, work study, and loan amounts.
Today, College Goal South Carolina has evolved into a true statewide efford to provide more financial aid information to all students, with a special focus on students that need and require financial assistance in order to attend colelge, during the month of February each year. In addition to disseminating information through a multitude of channels to reach these communities, College Goal South Carolina also provides students and their families/guardians free financial aid expert assissteance in successfully completing and submitting the FAFSA.
