Why is the FAFSA/NJAFAA a graduation requirement?
Research indicates two-thirds of almost all living wage jobs will require a postsecondary credential. Training for credentials can be expensive and entrance applications can sometimes be challenging. The Newark Board of Education is committed to preparing all students for the transition from high school to multiple pathways after graduation – both college and career. We support FAFSA/NJAFAA for all graduates. Filing is free. We will help students and families answer questions and successfully complete the process.
