Planning to Pursue Higher Education?

February is Financial Aid Awareness Month, and the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA) is reminding students and their families of a series of webinars that aim to help with understanding financial aid.

The webinar titled “Advance Planning for Financing Higher Education” is offered Tuesday, Feb. 25, at 6:30 p.m. This one-hour session will help participants understand education costs and what is available to help them plan and make affordable decisions.

The webinar titled “Improve Your Credit – Get Your Loan” is offered Thursday, Feb. 27, at noon.

This one-hour session will help participants increase their financial literacy and knowledge on the process of credit, how to maintain or improve ratings, and comparison points to help make informed and affordable education borrowing decisions.

PHEAA webinars highlighting financial aid timelines and understanding offer letters are scheduled in March. For a full schedule, and to register your participation, visit www.pheaa.org/virtual.
