THERE IS MONEY AVAILABLE
for students that want to go to college.
What's IMPORTANT is that you pursue your dreams – so do!

HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

The info may be overwhelming so USE the resources available to you.

A. Ask your SCHOOL COUNSELORS for help
They're trained on all the forms & sources of financial aid, & can help you and your parents with the forms you'll need to fill out, and the due dates.

B. Ask the COLLEGES to which you are applying about their college–specific financial aid options. They're experts on their own packages & the kinds of students they're trying to recruit.

It's important to get knowledgeable help because you do want the best financial aid you can get – & you don't want to get ripped off.
