Free presentation on how to pay for college

High school juniors and their parents will be able to get information on the college financial aid process during a free presentation offered by Lake Mills High School and the ICAN®.
The event will be held at 6:30 p.m., Monday, March 25, in the auditorium at LMCS. During the presentation, students and parents will receive information on topics including the financial aid process, understanding FAFSA results and college costs, financial aid options, the scholarship process and completing and filing financial aid forms.
“This presentation is very helpful for juniors and parents who are unsure exactly what is involved in the financial aid process,” says Jessica Schultz, ICAN student success advisor. “As students get closer to senior year, this presentation gives them the time to evaluate their choices and go into the process more knowledgeable and prepared for the journey ahead.”
Families will learn how to complete and file the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), a free form available from the U.S. Department of Education via www.fafsa.ed.gov.
Although professional assistance is not necessary to file the form, ICAN’s free services help reduce confusion and can ensure accuracy.
For more information about the presentation, students and parents should contact Rachel Rognes by calling 641-592-0894 or e-mailing rrognes@lake-mills.org.
