Navigating financial aid can feel overwhelming for students and families. FAFSA — the Free Application for Federal Student Aid — is the foundation for accessing grants, scholarships, and loans. Understanding how it works is essential before exploring repayment or refinancing options later on.
We recently came across a fantastic resource that breaks down FAFSA in clear, simple terms. The article covers everything from eligibility requirements to deadlines, along with practical tips for maximizing aid. It’s a must-read for anyone preparing to finance their education.

Why This Matters for Future Borrowers
FAFSA is often the first step in securing funding for college. But once students graduate, many find themselves managing multiple loans with varying interest rates. That’s where refinancing comes in. By consolidating and refinancing student loans, graduates can often reduce their interest rates, lower monthly payments, and simplify repayment.
Our Perspective
At Alt Lending, LLC, we specialize in helping borrowers take control of their student debt. While FAFSA helps you access aid during school, refinancing can be a smart strategy afterward to save money and reduce financial stress.
