Free help with college applications and fees

October 10th, 2009, 10:26 am · Post a Comment · posted by Marla Jo Fisher, Staff Writer

graduationIf you’re a high-school senior in the Anaheim Union, Garden Grove or Santa Ana unified school districts, then you are eligible for special personalized help applying for college.

That can include assistance with the college application process, and, in some cases, help with the application fees as well.  Free workshops on financial aid and other topics will also be available.

This program is sponsored by the Orange County Leadership Fund. You have to apply by Nov. 6, and 25 students will be selected.

It’s a shame only 25 kids can get this help, as it’s sorely needed, especially now that state budget cuts have made it more difficult to go to college.
