US State Government Aid The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is used to apply for most state loan, grant and scholarship programs, in addition to the federal loans and grants. When you submit the FAFSA to the US Department of Education, they forward the information on the form to the state student assistance agency. Each state has a different FAFSA submission deadline. If you submit your FAFSA by March 1, you will be in time for all state deadlines, other than Michigan. If you miss the deadline, you will be ineligible to receive state aid for the entire academic year. Procedures for applying for state prepaid tuition programs and the national guard differ from state to state. The amount of information provided on the state web sites varies from state to states. Some states provide comprehensive information about residency requirements, loan, grant, scholarship and prepaid tuition programs and other state aid programs. Others provide minimal information. We recommend visiting the sites for both your state of residence and for the states of the colleges to which you are applying. A B C D ...

In Year 6, 1000 individuals will be surveyed about their quality of life and satisfaction with services. Interviews are conducted by trained interviewers with developmental disabilities who receive DDA-funded services. The Project is unique for the following reasons: We believe persons with developmental disabilities are in a better position to elicit more meaningful responses from other individuals in DDA-funded programs than more traditional surveyors, as a result of their first-hand understanding of DDA services.
