Barriers to FAFSA Completion Take the Survey
The Minnesota Office of Higher Education is working to better understand student barriers to completing the FAFSA/Minnesota Dream Act application and how we can help alleviate them. Please help us by taking a few moments to share your thoughts by Friday, May 6th. Thank you so much for your time.
This survey is intended for counselors and other school staff who routinely help students complete these and other financial aid applications. We anticipate this survey will take less than 10 minutes to complete.
