Free FAFSA Completion Workshops at Three Rivers Community College

Monday, December 9, 2019, 1:00-3:00 p.m. and 5:30─7:30 p.m.
 
Applying for financial aid for college doesn’t have to be stressful. Take the mystery out of FASFA when you attend one of two free workshops offered by Three Rivers Community College. If you or your child are planning to attend college in the Fall 2020, then you need to complete your 20/21 FAFSA application, no matter what college you’re attending. This can be daunting, but we’re here to help. Three Rivers Financial Aid experts, Director Kenneth M. Briggs and Donna Ramos, with almost 40 years of combined experience, will lead the workshops. The FAFSA Completion Workshops will be held on Monday, December 9 from 1:00-3:00 pm and again from 5:30-7:30 pm.
 
Attendees will be given an overview of FASFA and then guided through filling out the forms on individual computers. The workshop offers bilingual help and is perfect for first generation students (the first students in their family to attend college). Attendees will need to bring their 2018 Tax Returns, W2s (if any) and FSA IDs for both you and your parents if you are a dependent. FSA IDs can be obtained at www.StudentAid/gov/fsaid.
 
Despite stories of burdensome college loans, everyone can afford college and minimize student debt with financial aid. And FAFSA is the first step to obtaining financial aid. The free workshops are for anyone who is considering attending public or private college to pursue a 2-year or 4-year degree. They will be held at Three Rivers in the computer lab in Room B-116 on Monday, December 9 from 1:00-3:00 pm and again from 5:30-7:30 pm.
