Don't Miss Out: Watch Governor Wes Moore's Message on Federal Student Aid

Dear Students, Families, K-12 and Higher Education Colleagues,

As part of our commitment to supporting students in achieving their postsecondary education goals, we encourage you to watch Governor Wes Moore's video message on the importance of completing the 2024-25 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA ®).

Governor Moore emphasizes the significance of completing the FAFSA by the August 31, 2024 deadline to secure over $7,000 in federal student aid, which can significantly help cover the costs of career school, community college, or a four-year university.
