If you want Federal financial aid for college you must complete a FAFSA application. FAFSA is the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. The application is used to figure the dollar amount you or your family will be expected to contribute towards college.

www.commonapp.org

  • Research the Common Application if you are interested in going to college out-of-state. This application allows you to fill out one generic application and send it to all schools that accept it.

    www.collegeboard.org
  • Start the CSS Profile. The University of Arizona requires the CSS Profile for students wishing to qualify for the Arizona Assurance Program. Many out-of-state universities also require the CSS Profile.

Looking for a job?

PIma County ONE STOP 798-0500
All youth coming from low-income households should call Pima County ONE STOP's main number at 798-0500 and ask to schedule a WIA eligibility interview. If they are eligivle for the program (income-based eligibility), they receive the highest level of assistance, which includes one-on-one sessions with a Workforce Development Specialist; individualized employment plan; job search assistance; job search, resume and other free workshops; opportunity to apply for post-secondary tuition assistance; and other services.

Youth ages 16-21 who are "job ready" and score at least at the 7th grade level on a basic education assessment that is administered can apply for the Pledge-A-Job program which matches youth with local entry-level positions; however, at this time we only have a part-time employee working on the progam and have been inundated with applications so there is a rather long wait for assistance. Alos, the program does not offer any additional services.

Youth can apply at www.pima.gov/CED/CS/OneStop/documents/
YouthEmploymentApplication_000.doc then call 798-0519 to schedule the assessment test.
