Prospective College Students Reminded of FAFSA Changes

Students completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid will notice a few changes this year.

Admissions Counselor at Ancilla College, Georgiana Hatter, spoke about the changes Friday. Applicants can now apply for FAFSA as early as October 1st, and applicants now use last year’s tax information. “This year is different, so everyone can file it a little bit earlier,” said Hatter.

Hatter stated that Ancilla would be offering free FAFSA courses from February 20th through February 23rd. Interested attendees can get the times of the classes by calling Ancilla College or stopping by the Admissions Office.

Hatter recruits students to Ancilla College from Eastern Indiana and all southern states of America. Hatter graduated from Ancilla in 2009 and started working for the college in 2016. You can contact Hatter at georgiana.hatter@ancilla.edu or through calling Ancilla College at 574-936-8898 ext. 334.

Ancilla has grown from a small commuter college to a residential college in the past few years. Ancilla now has two dorms which hold up to 192 students, as well as dining halls. The college has 500 students and is located in Marshall County. Students can earn either an Associate’s or an AAS degree. It is free to apply to Ancilla, and tours are offered daily.
