How can GRASP help you?

An introduction to GRASP's advising and scholarship services!

GRASP Advisors can help you navigate the college financial aid system and access institutional, federal, state, and community resources for funding your education. Advisors are assigned to specific high schools, where they provide individualized assistance to students and parents free of charge, primarily through private appointments.

Your GRASP Advisor will help you with: the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), the CSS profile, the VASA application, scholarships, special circumstances, and comparing award letters to help you make your post-secondary education goals a reality.
