Hello Seniors.  

Here are a few quick updates from the Counseling Department to help you pay for college:

1. Scholarships - Make sure you are regularly checking the CBA Scholarship page. There are a wide variety of scholarships which have been posted. Some have due dates approaching in the near future, so don't wait!  Many of these are local scholarships! Visit the google doc below which is updated regularly.

Scholarships 2024-2025

2. FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) - February is Finish the FAFSA month. 

- You will be hearing more about this in the coming weeks. FAFSA is important not only because it determines if you can receive Federal Student Aid, but it is also required by many institutions. Additionally, many scholarships now require you to have completed the FAFSA. Scholarships such as SECU People Helping People, the Golden Leaf, and the Bison Benefit at WCC which covers all tuition for 4 semesters all require the FAFSA to be completed. Some of these scholarships have deadlines approaching during or before March. So, even if you don't think you will receive Federal Aid, it is still important to complete the FAFSA!
