Of course. Don't assume you can't get aid just because you're not a citizen.
When am I NOT an eligible noncitizen and can not receive federal student aid?
Do you have only a Notice of Approval to Apply for Permanent Residence I-171 or I-464?
No, I don't.
Are you in the U.S. on an F-1 or F-2 nonimmigrant student visa, or on a J-1 or J-2 nonimmigrant Exchange Visitor Visa?
Yes, that'd be the case.
Then I'm afraid you're not an eligible noncitizen and can not receive federal student aid.
This reminds me of Ability-to-Benefit Alternatives, where can i have more information?
For more information on these criteria, speak to your school's financial aid office.
And how do I show if I am qualified to get a higher education?
do you have a diploma or GED?
no
Have you completed six credit hours or course work?
yes
If you were enrolled in a university or vocational school before July 1, 2012, or if you are currently enrolled in an eligible career program, you can demonstrate that you are qualified for a higher education
and should i register?
