If you get any money from your FAFSA?  I heard you have to pay it back, but so many other people told me no.

So...I'm confused.

p.s...I know this seems like a stupid question, but when it comes to paying off college finances I'd rather be sure.

i dont know what an FAFSA is.

NO you have to pay it forward.

Don't know whether it's the same but here in England, only when you're earning a certain amount of money you have to pay back the student loans.

No you don't have to pay fafsa money back.

Its not a loan.

Only the loans they offer you. And you will know about that as you will have to go through "loan counseling" which tells you everything about it and such.

Usually you get grants, which you do not have to pay back.

Okay, that makes a lot more sense.  Thank you (and the other couple who gave similar advice).

If it has "loan" on the end of it, then you have to pay it back. Otherwise no
