College Goal Sunday

WKOW-TV:

The goal of college goal Sunday is to help high school students fill out this the free application for federal student aid - or the FAFSA form. Students and their parents were taken through a step-by-step process of filling out the FAFSA something organizers say is the most important step in getting high school students to attend schools of higher education.

While 48 percent of Wisconsin High School students say they plan on attending college many don't follow through because they don't know where to look for financial aid. There were 14 families that attended the event in madison - and organizers hope they can expand that number next year. College goal sunday held in 12 different locations around the state. Wisconsin is one of 24 states that participated in the college goal sunday event.
