Maximize your Education: Financial Aid and Scholarships
Mia Bonta, Assemblymember, 18th District is thrilled to share valuable academic resources designed to uplift students seeking higher education in Assembly District 18 and beyond. With last year’s frustrations with the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (“FAFSA”), I encourage our emerging leaders to proactively prepare to ensure they have the opportunities and financial support to envision themselves in higher academic institutions.
Mia Bonta, Assemblymember, 18th District is thrilled to share valuable academic resources designed to uplift students seeking higher education in Assembly District 18 and beyond. With last year’s frustrations with the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (“FAFSA”), I encourage our emerging leaders to proactively prepare to ensure they have the opportunities and financial support to envision themselves in higher academic institutions.
As a former school board member, Mia knows how transformative education can be so along with her colleagues, they legislated to ensure that this year’s budget reflected the priorities of having every student eligible for financial aid, livable wages for teachers and professors, and robust TK-12 priorities reflected in our 2024-2025 state budget.
In today’s E-Newsletter, Maximize your Education: Financial Aid and Scholarships you will find carefully crafted academic financial aid, scholarships, and educational support for students pursuing their educational goals.
