Attached is a flyer for the November 30 Financial Aid/ FAFSA completion workshop for LCHS seniors. For Your Information: The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is the key that opens the door to financial aid. It serves as the application for most of the financial aid from federal and state programs and from colleges and universities. Students can receive financial aid to pursue certificate programs (a year or less) 2-year degrees, and 4-year degree programs. West Virginia offers more than $100 million each year in financial aid for college. FAFSA is the gateway to more than $150 billion in college grants, work-study funds, and federal student loans, as well as certain state-based aid. Students Apply online at studentaid.gov

A Financial Aid Meeting and Workshop will be hosted in the LCHS Auditorium on October 18th, please see the flyer below for more information.
