Last week, City Colleges held a series of financial aid workshops to kick off the release of next year’s FAFSA. Students and parents were able to get their questions answered about applying for financial aid by filling out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid), which became available on October 1, 2020.

City Colleges of Chicago District Director of Financial Aid Richard Hayes urged students to fill out their FAFSA as soon as possible in order to maximize their potential funding. City Colleges also offers scholarships and grants to help make college affordable.
