Parents and students can get important information on the various financial aid programs available to them at The College of the Canyons Financial Aid Office “Cash For College” workshop.

The workshop will take place at the College of the Canyons Performing Art center on Tuesday, Jan. 17, from 6:30-8:30 p.m.

In addition to the presentation in the Performing Arts Center, a Spanish language version of the same workshop will be held in the Student Center cafeteria.

“We hope this workshop will help incoming students and families understand the financial aid process, which can be initially daunting,” said Tom Bilbruck, financial aid director at the college.

At the event, students and families will be able to work with representatives from the college’s Financial Aid Office and get answers to common questions about applying for financial aid.

Attendees will also receive important information on how to navigate Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

The “Cash for College” event is free and open to the public.

Free parking will be available in all COC student parking lots for this event.
