Massachusetts S2533 mandates high school students to submit federal and state financial aid applications before graduation.
Massachusetts S2533 aims to maximize federal and state postsecondary financial aid options by requiring graduating high school students to submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and the Massachusetts Application for State Financial Aid (MASFA). Exemptions are allowed if a parent or guardian opts out or if the student is 18 or older and declines. The bill establishes the FAFSA and MASFA Trust Fund to support this requirement, with funds used for training, workshops, and community collaboration.
