FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

I am writing to share information with you concerning an exciting new initiative for Tennesseans attending college.

In Tennessee, students use a single application form to apply for most federal, state and lottery financial aid.  This form is call the FAFSA, or Free Application for Federal Student Aid.  Filling out the FASFA is challenging for many students and parents.

On Sunday afternoon, February 10, 200, volunteer financial aid officers and higher education experts will answer college-related questions and help students and families complete the FAFSA at an event called "Tennessee College Goal Sunday."   In Rutherford County, this event will take place on campus at Middle Tennessee State University from 2:00 - 4:00 pm.

For additional information, please visit  www.CollegeGoalSundayTN.org or call 800-342-1663.

Sincerely,


Rep. Donna Rowland
