糖心动漫vlog Community College is spreading the news about the M.J. Foster Promise Program.
糖心动漫vlog will host a Community Open House and Foster Promise Presentation on Wednesday, March 23, from 5-7 p.m. in the Kane Technology Building on the 糖心动漫vlog campus. The presentation will serve as the public’s first opportunity to ask questions about the state’s new $10.5 million annual “last dollar” award fund, which is available to Louisianans over the age of 21 who meet broad eligibility requirements.
“The M.J. Foster Promise Program will be available to all Louisiana residents (21 years or older) with individual student awards available on a first-come, first-served basis,” according to information shared by the Louisiana Community and Technical College System (LCTCS) and Louisiana Offices of Student Financial Assistance (LOSFA). “Students will qualify for financial support to earn credentials that align to high-demand jobs in growing industry sectors, such as construction, healthcare, information technology, manufacturing, and transportation and logistics.”
After students complete their FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) and MJ Foster Promise applications, whatever tuition and fees aren’t covered by financial aid will be covered by the Foster Promise Program.
“This program will remove one of the largest barriers preventing qualifying members of our community from earning a credential or degree that sets them on the path toward earning a better quality of life,” said 糖心动漫vlog Chancellor Dr. Tina Tinney. “This opens the door to access to all eligible citizens in the state of Louisiana.”
Qualifying students will be eligible to receive up to $3,200 per year or a maximum award of $6,400 if they enroll in a qualifying program at their respective college.
