doing the FAFSA online requires no paperwork. the only thing you print is your hardcopies. every semester after that its a quick renewal online.

Just some advice...after you get a school loan you will have established "credit". With this all the credit card companies will come out of the woodwork and offer you visa cards.
For a student it seems like free money, but it is really legalized loan sharking.
Avoid getting credit cards while in college. Ask me how I know.

I concur with this statement. Don't ask me how I know though. I think the fact that I still drive a V6 camaro 2 years after graduation is enough proof.
