Applying for Aid


Steps to Apply

To be considered for financial aid (including grants, loans, work-study, and scholarships), follow these basic steps:

  1. Complete the A-B Tech Enrollment Process if you have not already done so.
  2. Create your FSA ID. Also, have your parent(s) create an FSA ID if they need to sign your FAFSA.
  3. Apply for financial aid yearly by completing the FAFSA. The FAFSA will determine if you are eligible for any federal, state, or institutional aid. Note that A-B Tech's federal school code is 004033. After you submit your FAFSA to the federal processing center, you will receive a notification called a FAFSA Submission Summary via mail or email. You should review the information contained in the summary for accuracy. The Financial Aid Office will use the data from the FAFSA Submission Summary to determine your eligibility for financial assistance.
  4. If interested in loans, you must complete some additional Loan Application Steps.
  5. To apply for scholarships, you must also complete a scholarship application through our Scholarships page.
