How a student will pay for college is one of the many important questions today’s students need to address as they consider a college education.
Gateway Technical College realizes this, and is one of the host sites for College Goal Wisconsin, an effort which can help students and potential students navigate the financial aid process with hands-on help by providing access to free information and financial aid experts.
The Gateway events will be held:
- Oct. 3, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., in the SC Johnson Student Life Center in the Lake Building of the Racine Campus,1001 Lake Ave.
- Oct. 17, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., Badger High School, 200 E. South St., Lake Geneva.
- Oct. 29, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the commons of the Kenosha Campus, 3520-30th Ave.
Those who participate will be entered in a drawing for a scholarship at each site.
College Goal Wisconsin is an event designed to be an approachable way of learning how to apply for financial aid and get individual assistance in completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), the federally required form for students seeking financial aid such as grants and loans. Students and parents are encouraged to attend together, where needed.
