College 101 Workshop
Do you have a high school graduate preparing for college in the fall? Are you concerned about the financial aspects of "growing up" (student loans, budgeting, credit cards, etc.) and how your child will respond? As a parent are you confused about the various financial aid options and how they will impact your finances? Then College 101 is for you!College 101 is open to any senior high student that will be attending a four year college in the fall. The half day workshop provides financial education for students as well as a candid and interactive discussion with successful college graduates regarding college life and the importance of positive choices. Parents are encouraged to attend the workshop and participate in separate sessions related to financial aid and the changes they may experience when their college student returns home during school recess. The event is free but registration is required. To register e-mail us at ajtjscholarship@gmail.com
