The Ocean County College Financial Aid Office is dedicated to serving students who need financial assistance to obtain a college education.

Our staff will assist you with the financial aid application process and answer any questions.

Effective as of April 15, 2008 we will no longer offer appointments to assist students and parents in completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). However, students needing assistance in completing the FAFSA may contact the Federal Student Aid Information Center, who offer online assistance as well as telephone support. Alternatively, you can attend one of our O.P.E.N Workshops.

If you do not have access to a computer or the internet, there are computers available in the Ground Floor Lobby of the Administration Building, across from the Financial Aid Office strictly to be used for filing of the FAFSA. There are also computers available in the Library.

The hours of operation for the Federal FAFSA Information Center are:

Monday - Friday 8:00 a.m. - 12:00 midnight
Saturday 9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.
