Bridges to College Sponsors an ACT and Financial Aid Night
Many of you may be wondering how a student’s ACT score fits in with financial aid. The ACT composite score is one of the most important factors in a student obtaining scholarships and merit aid from colleges. This translates into what most would call “free money.” The best part is that these awards are given each year the student attends the college, as long as the student maintains the requirements set out within each scholarship.
Research has proven that a student’s ACT score can be improved with preparation. Julie Goldschmidt and Shelly Poeppelman, teachers from Fort Loramie High School, have recognized how important it is to provide students with an opportunity to learn how to improve their ACT score. Bridges to College is excited to have them share their program that they have built over the past few years in an ACT Prep Class format.
On Tuesday, January 19th at 7p.m., Chris Seger, a Bridges to College Board member, will present helpful information on Financial Aid and the FAFSA. The presentation will be held at the Greenville Senior High School Cafeteria. At the conclusion of the presentation, we will have a time for questions and also provide additional resources for getting help.
Please Contact Anne McKinney, Executive Director of Bridges to College, with questions at 937-423-2442.
