MANGILAO, Mar. 06\u2014The UOG Financial Aid Office gave a presentation for one of TRiO\u2019s recent workshops held on Friday, March 4.<\/p>\n
UOG Financial Aid officer Jordan Megofna led the presentation.<\/p>\n
The title of TRiO\u2019s workshop was \u201cFinancial Aid: Understanding and maintaining my Pell Grant Award.\u201d<\/p>\n
The highlights of the presentation were information regarding the cost of attendance of schools, student loans, grants, scholarships, and the FAFSA Pell Grant for undergraduates.<\/p>\n
Many students tend to call or visit the Financial Aid Office with frequently asked questions, so this presentation gave out insightful information to TRiO participants.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs incoming students, you will have to go in and fill out your federal student aid report on the website, www. Fafsa.ed.gov,\u201d Megofna advised. \u201cTry to find all the means to try to pay for your tuition, fees, and books.\u201d<\/p>\n
Participants were able to see comparisons between University of Guam\u2019s cost of attendance with what other off-island universities roughly costs.<\/p>\n
Students were informed about the FSA ID, which replaced passwords, for dependent students and parents.<\/p>\n
If a student is considered independent, then a parent is not needed.<\/p>\n
\u201cKeep in mind that FSA ID is for life. If you decide to continue to your master\u2019s degree or PhD, that is the same FSA ID you will use, so don\u2019t lose it,\u201d Megofna said.<\/p>\n
Megofna explained the verification process, which means if a student is called for verification, the student needs to submit a tax transcript from the Department of Revenue and Taxation.<\/p>\n
