An Articulation Agreement is a written contract between the high school and a post-secondary institution regarding a specific career or technical program. The high school and the postsecondary institution faculty meet to determine similarities in the curriculum and develop a program pathway. Some agreements may grant guaranteed placement in a program while others may grant college credit for courses successfully completed in high school. Each agreement is individually developed to assure a sequence of progressive achievements leading to degrees or certificates in a program.
FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid)
2024-2025 FAFSA FAQs
If you plan to apply for college financial aid, you’ll need to fill out the FAFSA. The FAFSA doesn’t become available until December 1st this year, but there’s one thing you can do now: get your FSA ID. The FSA ID is your FAFSA log-in, and both the student and at least one parent will need one. MEFA has a guide to help you figure out who in your family needs an FSA ID (see link below). Check out the info below to learn more about what the FSA IS is, who needs one, and how to get one.
