As students and families prepare for exploring colleges, Missouri State University-West Plains (MSU-WP) will host financial aid nights at area high schools to help them prepare for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

Officials at MSU-WP encourage current and prospective students to complete the FAFSA as early as possible.  Visiting area high schools to provide information about the financial aid process is intended to help students and families prepare for the next steps in pursuing higher education.

For more information about the FAFSA, students and their families can visit https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa.

Area high schools interested in hosting a Financial Aid Night may contact the MSU-WP Financial Aid Office to discuss scheduling a visit. For more information, contact the financial aid office at (417) 255-7243 or through email at WPFinancialAid@MissouriState.edu.
