<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Dear colleagues:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For those who were able to join us on short notice yesterday for the FAFSA Q&A session to go over the latest timeline update,
<i>thank you</i>. We, and all of higher education, have an unparalleled challenge ahead, but the demonstrable commitment and collaboration indicates
<i>we will get through this together</i>. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Watch meeting recording: <b><a href="https://youtu.be/e3jp0Le126M">FAFSA Q & A March 21, 2024 | SBCTC</a></b><o:p></o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:0in;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo3">
Feel free to share the recording with anyone at your college.<o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:0in;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo3">
The video is unlisted at the SBCTC YouTube channel, but anyone with the link can see it. Embedding is enabled should someone need that feature.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:12.0pt">The SBCTC team is putting its heads together to compile answers to add to the FAQs, both for the questions answered during the session, as well as those we were unable to answer during the Q&A. Be watching for
those in the coming days. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">During the session, the Student Services and Communications teams announced the new
<a href="https://www.sbctc.edu/colleges-staff/commissions-councils/fac/fafsa-rollout-24-25">
2024-25 FAFSA Resources</a> web page for our college system, and we hope you find it useful. The content will evolve and grow as we learn more.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top:12.0pt">Based on feedback, there is strong interest in future FAFSA Q&A sessions. Stay tuned for details.
