Students and parents have until the end of Dec. 1 to make sure the state Office of Student Financial Assistance has all of the credit and test scores necessary to qualify for one of four Bright Future scholarship options.
Families must submit a Student Florida Financial Aid Application to help determine a student’s qualification. Applicants can check on their FFAA form to see if the state has received a student’s test scores.
