Host: What applications need to be completed for aid from my college?

Brad Barnett: Yeah, this one is as different as night and day. With all the thousands of schools that are out there, there re thousands of different processes and applications. Every school functions completely differently. So, you really want to talk to the institution where you re attending and be very specific; to say, what application do I need to complete to get financial aid from you, your dollars, the things that you are awarding.
