The event will include workshops and panel discussions on how to pay for college; how to stand out your junior year; tips and tricks for applying for financial aid; Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) completion; earning college credit while in high school and successful college transitions. Qualified seniors will also be able to receive on-the-spot admission decisions and scholarship offers during the event.
