FREE Webinar: Get Ready! Get Set! Get In! Paying for College Without Going Broke

College is expensive! But price doesn't have to limit your choices. Wow Writing Workshop will be hosting a free webinar on this complex issue. Panelists Jennifer Ramsey Wallace, a leading expert on financial aid programs and Dean Tsouvalas, creator of the free scholarship information app ScholarshipAdvisor, will untangle the complexities of financial aid, share scholarship opportunities and suggest ways for parents and students to discuss these issues honestly at home.

Dean Tsouvalas is Editor-in-Chief of StudentAdvisor, a Washington Post company that provides free educational and career information to students of all ages. He also manages the company's ScholarshipAdvisor, a mobile app designed to make it easier to find money for college.

Jennifer Ramsey Wallace is the Outreach Manager for Financial Aid Programs for the Michigan Education Trust, the state's prepaid education plan. She provides financial literacy and financial aid presentations to more than 100,00 students and parents each year.
