Summary: FAFSA4caster, FAFSA on the Web, and PIN Banner Ads for your Web Site

Posted on 04-02-2007

Recently, Federal Student Aid announced the planned launch of FAFSA4caster, our newest tool to help students and their families plan for college. The FAFSA4caster provides students with an early estimate of their eligibility for federal student financial assistance. The FAFSA4caster is now LIVE and can be accessed at www.FederalStudentAid.ed.gov.

Federal Student Aid would like to encourage schools and educational organizations with their own Web sites to link to FAFSA4caster. This document is intended to help you add the FAFSA4caster banner to an existing Web page by providing you with the HTML and a selection of images (animated and static). In addition, we are providing updated banners that will link to the Department's electronic Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA on the Web) and the PIN Web sites. We assume fundamental competency using HTML by you, your staff, or your technical support.

For each of the banner ads below, highlight the text of the HTML, copy it, and paste it into the HTML document for your page. Then download the image. The exact method of saving these pictures to a disk or to your hard drive will vary depending on your operating system, choice of browser, and other factors. In general, however, if you right-click on an image you will see an option to "save" or "download" the "image" or "picture."

Please note that the HTML and images on this page are provided to help financial aid professionals link students to the Department of Education's FAFSA4caster tool, FAFSA on the Web site, or PIN Web site. While you are welcome to modify the HTML to accomodate the specific needs of your web page, these images should only be used to link to FAFSA4caster at <http://www.fafsa4caster.ed.gov/>, FAFSA on the Web at <http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/>, or the PIN Web site at <http://pin.ed.gov/>.

Do not use these images to link to any other sites.
