CWC to Host Paying for College Panel Discussion

Westfield - The hardest part of college shouldn’t be paying for it. For many parents, navigating the financial aid process can be stressful and confusing. Many parents struggle to see a way to pay for their child’s college education without sacrificing their own financial security, something that leaves them torn and troubled.

Please join the College Woman’s Club of Westfield for a discussion regarding financial aid, “Paying for College,” on Thursday, January 16 from 7pm in the Community Room, Westfield Municipal Building, located at 425 East Broad, Westfield.

The evening event will include a panel discussion covering the financial aid process, the FAFSA ® (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) and tools and resources to help prepare for and pay for your child’s college education. Panelists for the evening include: Maureen Mazzarese, Director of K-12 Counseling for Westfield Public Schools, Dorothy Gillard, Founder and President of Financial Aid Service and Need Analysis LLC and Philip Gross, (President and CEO) and Julie Gross (Vice President) of College Financial Consultants.

The workshop is free and open to the public. If you’re the parent of a high school freshman, sophomore, or junior planning to attend a four-year state college or private university, this is for you!

Seating is limited. Registration for the event can be found here: https://cwclubwestfield.org/events/#!event/2020/1/16/community-event-financial-aid-workshop.
