Cash for College!
The California Student Aid Commission is bringing a workshop to Westchester High School later this month to teach students how to apply for $1,000 Cal Grants for college. The grants are available to mid- and low-income 12th-graders graduating in the spring.
As part of the 2008 campaign, the commission has formed the Cal Grant College Cash Crew, a group of current and recent Cal Grant recipients that will encourage California students to apply for Cal Grants throughout January and February. Additionally, informational workshops will be held throughout the state to help students fill out forms and apply for Cal Grant money.
The workshop is from 6 to 8 p.m. Tuesday (Jan. 29) at Westchester High, 7400 W. Manchester Ave. For more information, contact Shanell Leggins at 310-338-2406 or via e-mail at lsl3557@lausd.net.
