SLCC's Florissant Valley, Meramec Campuses to Host College Goal
Sunday Feb.
12
College-bound students who are wondering how to pay for their
education will
benefit from a free program designed to answer that question Sunday,
Feb.
12, at the Florissant Valley and Meramec campuses of St. Louis
Community
College.
College Goal Sunday is a nationwide program that offers free
information and
assistance to students and their families who are applying for
financial
aid. The program will be 2-4 p.m. in Rooms 105/107 in the Training
Center
building on the Florissant Valley campus, 3400 Pershall Road, and in
Room
103 in the Lecture Hall building on the Meramec campus, 11333 Big
Bend Road.
Anyone interested in attending a postsecondary institution who might
need
financial assistance in paying for college may participate in
College Goal
Sunday. Financial aid professionals will be on hand to help
college-bound
students and their families complete the Free Application for
Federal
Student Aid (FAFSA), the first step in the college financial aid
process.
FAFSA is used to apply for federal student grants, work-study money
and
loans to assist students in paying for their education. Students
also may
use this application to apply for most state and some private
financial aid.
Participants will need to bring their 2005 federal tax records to
the
session.
For more information about the program at SLCC-Florissant Valley,

Khaneetah Cunningham at (314) 513-4226; at SLCC-Meramec, call Helen
