San Angelo Chamber’s College Goal Sunday

Graduating seniors across the country are looking for ways to pay for their college education. In an effort to assist students, especially first-generation college students, to begin the process of seeking financial aid, the San Angelo Chamber of Commerce and the P-16+ Education Partnership will host College Goal Sunday on February 21st from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. in the Sunset Mall Community Room.

All San Angelo and area high school students, especially juniors and seniors, and their parents are invited to attend.

College Goal Sunday will pull together volunteers and financial aid professionals to help families of collegebound students complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), the federally required form for students seeking financial aid, including grants, loans and work-study.     By participating in this two-hour free event, families of college-bound students will take an important step toward applying for the financial resources necessary to make college a reality.

All participants will be entered into a drawing for one of multiple $500 tuition scholarships given by the P-16+ Education Partnership.
