Free money for college!
||| from Arden Ainley for Skagit Valley College
More students will be able to realize their dream of attending Skagit Valley College (SVC), thanks to increased funding by the State of Washington, for low- and middle-income students and families.
Free Money for College! The Washington College Grant (WCG), formerly known as the State Need Grant, provides guaranteed funding to all eligible residents of Washington State.
In addition to guaranteed funding for eligible students, the program has also expanded to include students and families with higher incomes who may have been previously ineligible. Eligibility is determined by completing a federal or state financial aid application: FAFSA or WASFA. Students who are eligible to complete the FAFSA should do so, and those who are ineligible to complete the FAFSA, may complete the WASFA.
For more information, visit wsac.wa.gov/wcg, www.skagit.edu/wa-college-grant, or contact the SVC Financial Aid Office, 360-416-7666. Fall Classes start September 22.
