Correct any errors following correction instructions. Be sure The ³Ô¹ÏÌìÌà is listed as a college choice.
  2. By filing the FAFSA Pennsylvania residents will automatically be considered for the Pennsylvania State Grant.

PHEAA normally transmits official notification of eligibility beginning May 15.
