San Diego Unified Students Spread Word on Scholarships through Public Service Announcement

Tuesday, November 1, 2022

SAN DIEGO--San Diego Unified School District produced a Public Service Announcement (PSA) featuring students as part of the family outreach campaign related to the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).  The PSA includes San Diego Unified students sharing their future career goals and encouraging fellow students to apply for FAFSA. 

Through its outreach campaign and PSA,  San Diego Unified shows how families can 1) create their FAFSA ID account and 2) complete the FAFSA application.
