Mesa Community College will be
hosting an event on campus that is sure to benefit all American
Indian students who are in need of financial aid information.
The American Indian center and the Financial Aid office are sponsoring
a Financial Aid Open House Feb. 17, from 1-6 p.m. in the Navajo
Room, which is located in the Kirk Center.
All American Indian students in the valley-metro area can stop
by to obtain information pertaining to financial aid planning.
Various scholarships and training programs will be made available
to those who attend.
Representatives from the 22 Arizona Tribal Higher Education Offices
and Workforce Development Training Programs will be present along
with many other scholarship representatives from the American
Indian Services, the American Indian Education Foundation, the
Association of American Indian Affairs, the BHP Billiton-New Mexico
Coal, Catching the Dream, and Indian Health Services.
This opportunity will prove to benefit some American Indian students
because some are unable to travel to their Tribal offices to process
the information necessary for financial-aid assistance.
For more information, please contact
the program advisor, Loretta Damon, at (480) 461-7154 or e-mail
her at loretta.damon@mcmail.maricopa.edu.
