Newark City of Learning Collaborative

??Do you have an event to share? Join us in building our Collaborative Calendar! Our partners have voiced a need for a centralized calendar for postsecondary events in our community. We've listened! Therefore, we invite partners to share details of events, resources, or workshops that support students at any stage of their postsecondary journey: - College applications - Returning to college - FAFSA - General Financial aid - Scholarships - Any other educational support students may need!

The High School Academic Support Program is hosting a FAFSA Completion Session at the Newark Public Library, Springfield Branch (50 Hayes Street). Please share and direct students to this event. It's not too late for students to complete their FAFSA, or even to apply to college! If any students are ready to pursue their education, please direct them to this event to complete the FAFSA, which is the key to financial support for postsecondary education. Associate degree, vocational or career school, Bachelor's degree -- all these programs accept the FAFSA and can provide grants, scholarships, and low-interest loans for education. Even if they haven't applied to a school or program yet, they should come complete their FAFSA. Join us for this session on JULY 2 from 11 AM to 1 PM. ?? ? If students cannot attend, contact the High School Academic Support Program to schedule a virtual or in-person appointment at [email protected] or call the Director, Mr. Lyndon Brown, at 862-368-4261. We hope to see them there, because we want to see them succeed! #college #collegefinancialaid #newarknj #newarkgoestocollege
