Financial Aid

Students and parents can access a variety of financial aid information in the Career Center. A scholarship board is available, with award information posted on the board and applications available from the desk in the Career Center.
A variety of financial aid books are also available for students and parents to access in the Career Center. Books are available on scholarships/other aid for specific demographic groups. We also have books that provide some great guidance in the scholarship application process--you can find help on how to write a winning essay and more.
Each December, we offer a Finanical Aid night. This evening presentation is for both students and parents to learn about all aspects of financing a college education, and the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) will be explained. If your family needs help filling out the FAFSA, please call or stop by anytime for assistance!
