Every applicant seeking financial aid must file:

3. A Terms and Conditions of Financial Aid form available at http://www.dowling.edu/mydowling/forms/stu-index.html (click on #2 under Scholarships & Financial Aid). This form is also available in Student Financial Services

The FAFSA application is available at High School guidance offices and on the web at www.fafsa.ed.gov There is a link on the fafsa website that will bring you directly to the NYS TAP application or you can visit www.tapweb.org.
