Paying For College

Sometimes the financial aid award package does not quite cover all of the financial needs for education. It is important to make sure you have explored every source of assistance. In doing so, there are many resources available that provide financial aid information. Some of these resources are:

• College financial aid office - has information about financial aid programs available from the institution and state government.
  
  
• Internet - provides free electronic searches for information about different types of grants and scholarships available to students.
  
  
• Guidance counselors - offer information about financial aid programs available from your community.
  
  
• Libraries - have resource books with information about national financial aid programs.
  
  
• Employers - may provide educational assistance for employees.
