Sen. Jarrett Coleman, R-16th and the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency are jointly hosting a virtual event to provide an overview of the new process to apply for financial aid.

The presentation, which will provide information about financial aid and college planning, will be held 6:30-7:30 p.m. Jan. 29.

Following the presentation, additional time will be used for a question-and-answer session.

The event is open to anyone interested in pursuing higher education, regardless of grade or age.

“The college application process can be confusing for both students and parents. I’m pleased to partner with PHEAA to offer families this valuable informational webinar as they navigate applying to college,” Coleman said.

Michael Burke, PHEAA higher education access partner, will provide in-depth information about college planning, available programs and the necessary steps to apply for aid.
