College Goal SC to Offer FAFSA Help, Information at OCtech March 18

Orangeburg-Calhoun Technical College will host College Goal South Carolina from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, March 18, in Building R on the OCtech campus.

College Goal SC is a participating member of College Goal Sunday, a volunteer program that provides free information and assistance to students and families who are applying for financial aid for post-secondary education.

Financial aid experts will be on hand to help students complete and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid – or FAFSA – which is the first step to receiving federal aid and a requirement for most students who plan to pay for college with the help of several types of financial aid. While the event is being held at OCtech, the financial aid staff will be available to assist all students, regardless of where they plan to attend college. Scholarship information will also be available at the event. For more information, contact Sonya Dash at 803.535.1251 or dashsl@octech.edu.

College Goal South Carolina is supported by the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education and South Carolina Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators and funded by the National College Access Network. For more information about College Goal SC, visit sccango.org.
