Clayton State Schedules
Fourth Annual FAFSA Day For June 8
Clayton State University Director of
Financial Aid Pat Barton has announced
that the Office of Financial Aid’s popular
FAFSA Day will be held for the fourth
time on Saturday, June 8, from 10 a.m. to
3 p.m., in room UC327 of the James M.
Baker University Center.
The 2013/2014 Free Application for
Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form is the
key document for anyone planning to
attend college during the 2013/2014 aca-
demic year. Students must complete a
FAFSA (or a renewal FAFSA) to receive
federal aid for the 2013/2014 academic
year which begins with fall semester
2013, even if they are currently receiving
financial aid. Although there is often a
great deal of trepidation among students
regarding FAFSA, the helpful staff in
Financial Aid can provide any and all
guidance needed.
Clayton State financial aid administrators
will be available for FAFSA Day on June
8 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. to help families
who still need to complete and electroni-
cally submit their FAFSA forms for the
2013/2014
academic
year.
Representatives from the Clayton State
Office of Recruitment and Admissions
will also be available for campus tours
and to assist students who wish to apply
for admission to Clayton State University.
Like the FAFSA, this event is free and
open to the public.
Attendees for FAFSA Day should bring
the following documents with them:
* Social Security number for student and
spouse if married and parent(s) if depend-
ent
* Driver’s license number of student (if
any) and spouse
* 2012 Federal Tax Form (1040, 1040A,
1040EZ, etc.) for student and spouse if
married and parent(s) if dependent
* 2012 W-2 Form(s) and other records of
money earned for all tax filers
* Parents date of birth and date of marital
status if dependent
* Amount of untaxed income including
Veterans non-education benefits, child
support, and worker’s compensation
* Current balance in checking and/or sav-
ings accounts for student and spouse if
married and parent(s) if dependent
* Current worth of business and invest-
ments
*Alien registration or permanent resident
card (if you are not a U.S. citizen)

posed of three years of anonymized, real
patient information. Because real data
was used in these data sets, Heritage
already knew who would get hospitalized
and could run a live “leader board,” rank-
ing teams as they refined their algorithms.
Deviating from traditional contracting
with a data company for private results,
Merkin created the competition and
award. The Heritage Health Prize brought
alternative forms of expertise to bear on
tough questions, breaking down research
silos. Offering a prize also tends to be
cheaper than contract spending.
team earned a total of 29.3 total loss
points over the three month period.
Whitehead saw outstanding results
through participation in the Lose to Win
Incentive program as she accrued 44.8
total loss points on her own.
“I signed up for the Win to Lose Program
in January,” she says. “I’ve started the
New Year with the same resolution for the
past four years, `Lose Weight,’ and never
accomplished it until now. One of the con-
tributing factors to my success was
attending The Weight of the Nation
Screening, hosted by the Department of
Recreation & Wellness. The documentary
provided me with the information and
motivation I needed to begin my health
and fitness journey.
“I’ve watched several other health related
documentaries since then and I try to
make healthier purchases while grocery
shopping and eating out. I have apps
installed on my phone that I use while
grocery shopping, which helps me make
healthier choices. This is just the begin-
ning and I’m looking forward seeing
where the journey will take me.”
Recreation & Wellness will host the 60
miles in 60 days faculty/staff challenge in
early June. Interested participants will run,
bike, walk, or swim to see who makes 60
miles in 60 days. If you are interested in par-
ticipating in the 60 Miles in 60 Days
Challenge, please feel free to contact Lisa
Williamson, assistant director of Recreation
& Wellness (Fitness & Wellness) at lisaw-
illiamson@clayton.edu.
