CLEARLAKE, Calif. – Yuba Community College District and Lake County Campus of Woodland Community College cordially invite all high school seniors and their parents to learn how they can attend college for little to no money.

The workshop will be held on Wednesday, Jan. 27, at 6 p.m. in Room 209-211 at the Lake County Campus, 15880 Dam Road Extension in Clearlake.

Attendees will obtain information on federal and state grants, strategies for applying for scholarships, and an overview of the financial aid process.

Assistance will also be available for filling out your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and DREAM Act application.

Students should inform their school counselor that they will be going to the workshop. The workshop will be available to both English and Spanish speakers.

Those who wish to attend this workshop should also bring their student/parent 2015 income info with them to facilitate the process of applying for grants and scholarships.

High school seniors who participate in the Cash for College Workshop, complete an exit survey and apply for a Cal Grant will be able to take part in a raffle drawing at the end of the workshop.

This is a great opportunity for students to get a jump start on entering their FAFSA or DREAM Act application before the Cal Grant deadline.

It also will be important for new graduates to understand the requirements for Cal Grant entitlement grants. If you are not sure whether you meet financial-need requirements, apply anyway.

This workshop is intended to provide information and to assist in filling out applications; it is not an assurance of a grant or scholarship.

For more information on the workshop or financial aid please contact Sandra Magnan at 707-995-7923.
