Sophomores Attend My Success Event

On October 5th, the Sophomore class attended the My Success Event.  This was a great opportunity for students to learn more about great career opportunities that exist in St. Joseph and Northwest Missouri. Students were able to explore various career paths, experience what it is like to work for local companies, find out what employers are looking for in employees and learn more about education and training opportunities.

4 Year Universities Offering A+ Scholarships/Incentives

At last nights Financial Aid meeting a few of you asked about universities that offer A+ scholarships.  If you go HERE you will find a good list.  Keep in mind that this list was compiled in March of 2016, so it's a good idea to contact the financial aid office at the college/university that your student is considering to find out for sure.

Thanks for coming out last night.  I hope you learned a lot and left with a completed FAFSA.  For those of you who couldn't make it remember that if your student plans on attending a technical college, community college, university, etc. that it is time to complete the FAFSA.  The first step in the process is to create an FSA ID.  This must be done by the student and one parent.  For more information on creating an FSA ID go HERE.

Once you and your student have their FSA ID you can complete the FAFSA. To do that you may go HERE.

If you have questions about this process remember that the financial aid office at the school that your student is considering is a great resource.
