Tell us your story
about paying for college!
America's
Promise is working with the Gates Foundation to help make the financial aid
system work better for students. How can college be more affordable? How
can consumers of financial aid make better decisions? Most important, how
can financial aid help increase college completion rates? Selected stories,
of no more than 400 words, will be featured on AmericasPromise.org and in
other materials to show how financial aid affects college choices, college
life and life after graduation. As an extra incentive, a $50 Target gift
card will be awarded to two people who submit completed stories. The
deadline is June 3. Share your story!
