Learn how to pay for college!

Discover the ins and outs of the college financial aid process at the Peters Township Public Library on Tuesday, October 2 at 6:30 p.m. A representative from the Pennsylvania High Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA) will discuss a variety of methods to finance a college education, as well as looking at alternatives to the traditional college experience.

Parents and students are invited to the presentation by Jayeann Harr, Higher Education Access Partner from PHEAA, which will describe all federal and PA-state financial aid programs, scholarships and the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) application processes. Other topics will include how colleges award aid to families and how financial aid deadline dates interface with the college admissions process. Loan rates and interest rates for students and parents will also be explained. A question and answer session will follow the program.

Registration is necessary for this free program either online, at the Library's circulation desk, or call 724-941-9430.
