St. Clair County Community College is hosting a Financial Aid Night to help individuals and families learn more about paying for college.
The workshop is Wednesday, October 26th at 7 PM in the college’s Fine Arts Theater. It will provide tips and information for keeping college debt to a minimum and taking advantage of the many college funding options available from government and private sources.
SC4’s Executive Director of Financial Assistance and Services Josephine Cassar said, “If you’re interested in earning credits, a degree or a certificate and want to learn more about federal, state and private funding sources and scholarships that might help you achieve your goals, this event is for you—no matter where you’re planning on heading to college.”
Since the pandemic, funding has increased for federal and state programs that assist students with tuition and associated college costs. Programs like Futures for Frontliners and Michigan Reconnect have also been instituted which provide scholarships for adults who work in certain careers or who are returning to school.
Financial Aid Night at SC4 will also provide information about the Federal Application for Free Student Aid (FAFSA) which is now available for the 2023-24 school year.
