Found this post regarding the MyFSA, and thought would be a good addition to the Just Money Honey quest of good financial information for good Americans. ;-)
If you require some good information on the student loan business, and how you can better yourself, we highly recommend checking out the MyFSA web site. You will find EXCELLENT content, and great advice before you decided to venture in the direction of procuring a student loan. Below is some excerpts and links from the MyFSA web site.
There is information there if you are looking for a basic good credit student loan, as well as, great information on getting fast bad credit student loans.
What is MyFSA?
MyFSA is your personal portfolio. When you create your account, we will provide you with a MyFSA account in which to store all your information.
How do I access MyFSA?
You can access your individual MyFSA account at anytime by simply logging on with your user-name and password. You will only have access to MyFSA if you create an account. The reason for this is the information you enter is highly confidential and must be password-protected. Once you create your account you will automatically have your own MyFSA account and anytime you return to this site you will be able to access it with your user name and password.
How do I use MyFSA?
To access MyFSA, you must first login to the site. Once you login, the different MyFSA sections will be visible to you in the left column of the screen. Any information you save in the site will be displayed in MyFSA. To go directly to a particular section of MyFSA, you may click on the corresponding link for that section.
What is in MyFSA?
Applications
Once you begin an application, MyFSA will track where you stopped entering your information and will link you to all applications in progress. It will also provide the date and confirmation number of your submitted applications.
Colleges
Any colleges you add to MyFSA will be stored in and accessed through this area. These colleges will automatically be used in worksheets and tables calling for colleges. You may add or delete colleges from this list at anytime.
Profile
The information you enter about yourself will be stored in your Profile. Make sure to keep your information as accurate and up-to-date as possible. The Profile will be used to fill in your applications automatically and search for potential scholarships that match your profile.
Financial Aid
You may store and access any scholarships, loans, and cost of attendance information saved in the Financial Aid Wizard. This section of MyFSA uses the schools from the Colleges section above to calculate approximate costs.

Careers
Once you have completed the Self Assessment and Career Finder, any careers or majors that have met your specifications can be stored and accessed here.

Who has access to MyFSA? Is it private?
The only way to access MyFSA is with your individual user-name and secret password. We will only provide your information to third parties if you indicate that you would like us to do so. We recommend you read our privacy statement.
