COLLEGE FINANCIAL AID NIGHT

High school students and their parents can discover the ins and outs of the college financial aid process at the Peters Township Public Library on Monday, October 21 at 6:30 p.m. Jayeann Harr from the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency will discuss a variety of methods to finance a college education, as well as looking at alternatives to the traditional college experience. The presentation will describe all federal and PA-state financial aid programs, scholarships and the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) application processes.
