Free Cash for College workshop this Saturday
The Northern Marianas College is reminding students and members of the community about the free “Cash for College” workshop that will happen tomorrow, June 17, 2017, at the NMC As Terlaje campus, Building A. The workshop will be an ongoing session, so participants can stop by anytime between 9am and before the end of the workshop at 12pm.
The workshop will also be held on Tinian on June 20, 2017, at the NMC Tinian Center from 10am to 2pm, and on Rota on June 22, 2017, at the NMC Rota Center from 10am to 2pm.
Participants of the workshop will be provided with personal, step-by-step assistance in completing college financial aid forms, focusing especially on forms for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, the Saipan Higher Education Financial Aid, and the CNMI Scholarship.
Staff members from the college’s Office of Admissions and Records will also be present to provide information and assistance with the NMC application process. In addition, those who participate in the workshop will qualify to have their NMC application fee and placement test fees waived for the upcoming fall 2017 semester. This waiver represents a savings of up to $75.
Although not required, it is recommended that workshop participants bring identification (e.g., a valid U.S. passport, copy of valid application for a U.S. passport, birth certificate, or green card), an official transcript from high school (at least three official copies), copy of 2015 1040, copy of 2015 W-2 (if not filing), and proof of CNMI residency, including proof of continuing residency. Applicants for SHEFA should bring a valid U.S. passport or a voter registration card.
