Parental Information
The federal government
requires parental financial information for all students who receive the
HPSL. Parental information does not mean providing a federal tax return; it
requires the completion of "Step Four" (the purple portion) of the FAFSA and a
parental signature on the FAFSA. Students CANNOT be considered for the HPSL
unless they have provided complete parental information on the FAFSA.
