FAFSA Completion with Ladder Up

CPS is again partnering with Ladder Up to provide assistance with FAFSA completion.

Ladder Up offers free financial aid assistance to the public. Knowledgeable staff and volunteers can assist you with the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and help you secure valuable funding for college. There are no income or age limits for clients – all are welcome!

Please review Ladder Up’s Required Documents to know what information you should bring with you in order to complete the FAFSA.

In School Workshops

Ladder Up will be visiting most of our high schools, so please check your school calendar or stop by your Counselor’s office to find out your dates and times. You may also download this MS Excel file from Ladder UP that lists dates and times their teams will be visiting schools.

In addition to school visits, Ladder Up is also hosting numerous workshops open to the public.
