Free College Financial Aid Info Session to be Held

DEC. 29, 2006-- A free information program on financial assistance for attending college will be offered at UW-River Falls on Tuesday, Jan. 9, 2007 from 7 to 9 p.m. in the new University Center on campus. Doors open at 6 p.m.

The event, geared toward parents and high school seniors, is free and open to the public. Participants do not have to be planning on applying or enrolling at UWRF to attend, as the program is designed to meet the needs of any student who plans to continue education after high school. Family members are also encouraged to attend.

Among the topics to be covered are the types of federal and state financial aid programs, how to complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), how awards are made, and the costs to attend college. Participants will also be able to submit questions to financial aid experts.

A scholarship raffle will be held for high school seniors; winners must be present to win. For more information, contact the UWRF Office of Financial Assistance at 715-425-3141 or e-mail finaid@uwrf.edu.
