Bethel encourages students to meet final deadline for financial aid applications

Although the March 1 priority deadline has passed  Bethel's Office of Student Financial Services is urging students fill out the FAFSA by March 10, which is the Indiana deadline. "We just want to make sure students get all the money they are eligible to receive," said Yvonda Kisor, student accounts manager. " Students who miss the deadlines may miss out on some aid, especially state aid in Indiana." Kisor said Indiana has received so many more requests for assistance the state has had to make some changes in the way it allocates the money. She said it has also forced the state to be more strict about deadlines. Students can find the FAFSA at www.fafsa.gov to renew all federal or state grants and loans for 2010-2011.
