This unique electronic book on CD-ROM - revised for 2009 - has comprehensive coverage of federal student aid programs and other federal grants and assistance programs. Federal programs available for higher education are grants (financial aid that doesn't have to be repaid), work study, and loans. There are four types of federal student aid grants: Federal Pell Grant, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG), Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG), and the National Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent Grant (National SMART Grant). The Federal Work-Study (FWS) program lets students work part-time to earn money. Student loans, which must be repaid with interest, include Federal Perkins Loans, FFEL Stafford Loans, Direct Stafford Loans, FFEL Plus, and Direct PLUS. CD-ROM: Newly revised and expanded for 2009 with updated material not found in earlier editions, our unique electronic book on CD-ROM has an amazing collection of the finest federal documents and resources on government grants with extensive coverage of federal student aid programs, Education Department information on college loans, and the 2009 Federal Student Aid Handbook. There is a section on getting files and records from government agencies through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and the Privacy Act. Save time and effort by using this comprehensive resource to find grants, disaster relief, loans, student aid, programs, or records! There is individual coverage of federal agencies and departments, along with tips and resources for grant proposal writing. In addition, next-generation search technology allows complete cross-file indexing and makes all files on each disc fully searchable! The depth and breadth of the coverage of federal grants and small business programs is truly awesome. The full reproduction of the 2008-2009 Federal Student Aid Handbook provides authoritative information on the student aid application process. Student eligibility and school eligibility and operations sections provide a application and verification guide with complete data on the application process, FAFSA to ISIR, Expected Family Contribution, Verification, Student Eligibility, School Determined Requirements, Citizenship Requirements, NSLDS Financial Aid, and more.
