Experts to advise
students on various programs available
The College of Staten Island will host a financial aid seminar on
Feb. 1.
Sponsored by the City University of New York, the seminar will be
held during Financial Aid Awareness Month in New York State and will
be open to the public.
“We are intensifying our efforts to help current and prospective
students learn about the full array of city, state, federal and
private financial assistance and scholarships available,” said
Chancellor Matthew Goldstein.
Experts from CUNY Office of Financial Aid will advise parents and
students on the various programs available. They will also offer
tops on completing the Free Application for Federal Student
Financial Aid (FAFSA) and New York State/CUNY Tuition Assistance
Program (TAP) applications. Special instruction will be given on how
to monitor the status of the application after the actual request
has been submitted. Many seminars will be offered in Spanish,
Chinese and Russian, in addition to English.
