Daytime and evening hours available for appointments at Baltimore CASH Campaign's main office,
111 Water St., Suite 201, Baltimore, MD 21202!

Financial Resource Volunteers at certain tax sites will help you complete the FAFSA (financial aid application)! Bring your most recent tax return with you to your appointment. Students who are considered “dependent” on the FAFSA application will need to bring their parents and their parents’ tax returns to the appointment as well.

FAFSA applications may be filed throughout the year, but it is best to submit the FAFSA by
March 1st to ensure consideration for Maryland state grants and loans.
