How to Apply for Kentucky Aid

Step 1: Complete the FAFSA

Most state aid programs require the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Complete it at studentaid.gov.

Step 2: Check State Deadlines

State aid often has earlier deadlines than federal aid. Visit the Kentucky Higher Education Assistance Authority for specific dates.

Step 3: Apply for State-Specific Programs

Some scholarships require separate applications. Check the official state website for any additional requirements.

Maximize Your Aid

Kentucky scholarships can be combined with federal grants to cover more of your college costs. You may be eligible for both Pell Grants and state aid.
