Vicki Curless will provide an overview of the FAFSA, including how it works and how answering certain questions can hurt or help being approved and how much is allocated. She will discuss alternative financing: scholarships, grants, fellowships, contests, etc. to taking out loans. She will also cover how to interpret the estimated costs of a college when they present a financial aid package.

This free class is for middle school and high school students (grades 8-12) and their parents.
