No Pause on Federal Student Aid—Get Help at GRADcafé! 🎓💰

The FAFSA is not paused—students can still apply for federal financial aid, including grants and loans!

The White House's federal funding freeze does not affect federal student loans, Pell Grants, or other aid provided through Federal Student Aid. While some college-based programs might see changes, most financial aid for the spring semester will continue as planned!

Need help with your FAFSA or financial aid questions?

GRADcafé is here to assist you! ✅
