NHS Financial Aid Webinar

There is approximately $185 billion in college financial aid available, according to the College Board. How does a student or parent know where to begin in maximizing opportunities to secure dollars and pursue higher education?

The answer is coming! The National Honor Society (NHS) is proud to announce the second in its college admission planning webinar series this academic year.

This session will feature the most knowledgeable experts on the topic. A Twitter Town Hall, from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. (ET), will feature panelists as well as representatives from the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Federal Student Aid.

Please encourage your NHS members and their parents to take advantage of this exclusive opportunity to tune in and learn critical information by registering at www.nhs.us/webinar. (School personnel are welcome to register as well to become better versed in the topic.)

Understanding Financial Aid Wednesday, February 17 7:00-8:00 p.m. (ET)

A flier is included with this email to help you get the word out to your members:

1. Download the flier here and fill in your school affiliation number, shown above. (Members or parents who wish to participate will need that number to complete the registration.)
2. Make copies of the flier and distribute it to your members.
3. You could also fill in the number on the flier, scan it, and email it to your members.

NHS is proud to continue this webinar series in order to support college access and success for its members. Thank you for being an advocate in the future of your students.

Sincerely,

Jonathan D. Mathis, PhD
Director, National Honor Societies
