Southeastern Community College is offering free help for students and families who need assistance completing the FAFSA.

SCC will host two Financial Aid Workshops later this month to help individuals planning to start college this spring navigate the Free Application for Federal Student Aid process. Staff will be available to walk attendees through the form and answer questions about financial aid.

The first workshop will take place Wednesday, February 18th, from 3 to 6 p.m. at SCC’s West Burlington campus in Room 361. The second session is set for Wednesday, February 25th, from 3 to 6 p.m. at the Keokuk campus in Room 419.

The workshops are free and open to students of any age or income level, no matter which college they plan to attend. No pre-registration is required. Assistance will be provided on a first come, first served basis. Students under the age of 24 are asked to attend with at least one parent or guardian.

To complete the 2026 to 2027 FAFSA, students and parents should bring their Social Security numbers, driver’s license numbers, 2024 federal and state tax returns, W-2 forms, bank statements, records of assets and investments, documentation of any untaxed income, and current account balances. Non U.S. citizens should also bring their A-Number.

Students who cannot attend either workshop can schedule an appointment for FAFSA assistance year-round by contacting Mack Turner at 319-208-5026.
