Due to the current conditions in Marshall County, Plymouth High School will no longer serve as a College Goal Sunday site on February 25th.
Plymouth Community Schools Marketing Director Judi Lykowski encourages local families to attend this weekend’s event at any of the other locations across the state. She said other nearby locations include Valparaiso, Goshen, Warsaw, Elkhart and South Bend. A plethora of other sites are listed at CollegeGoalSunday.org.
College Goal Sunday is a cost-free charitable program held by the Indiana Student Financial Aid Association. At this state-wide event, students and their families can receive assistance with filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid aka the FAFSA.
The application must be filled out prior to April 15th in order for college-goers to be eligible for federal financial aid. During this program, financial aid assistants will be on site providing help to Hoosier students looking to receive funding for college.
Students who attend the event with their parent or guardian should bring completed IRS tax returns, W-2 forms and other income and benefits information.
In the three decades that the College Goal Sunday program has been held, more than 93,000 Indiana Students and families have been assisted with completing and submitting the FAFSA accurately and on time.
