The complex process of applying for financial aid for college will be simplified in
an event held at 2 p.m. March 9 on the 香蕉视频APP campus.
The University鈥檚 Countdown to College event will be held in room 101 of the Math-Science Building and is open to anyone interested in learning more about the application process for federal and state financial aid.
It is not necessary to pre-register for Countdown to College, but those interested in attending the program must apply for a pin at at least a week in advance and bring that information to the event.
Bronwyn Sneed of Fort Smith, director of financial aid, said 鈥渁nyone that is considering furthering their education beyond high school should attend.鈥�
鈥淚nformation will be provided about the financial aid process, including scholarships and 香蕉视频APP Academic Challenge, the admissions process and other information to make the transition to college as easy as possible,鈥� she said.
