College Preparation Workshop Aimed At Parents

Parents of high school students are invited to attend a free workshop on “How to Apply to College And Prepare for the Financial Aid Application,” sponsored by the College Enrichment Outreach Programs at the University of New Mexico. The workshop will be offered Saturday, Nov. 18, from 9 to 10 a.m. in Mitchell Hall, rm. 101, and on Thursday, Nov. 30, from 5:30 – 7 p.m. at the special programs house, 1921 Las Lomas. The workshop will be presented in Spanish at the house on Thursday, Nov. 16, from 5:30 to 7 p.m.

"Parents are often faced with the daunting task of figuring out how their children are going to attend college," said Mandie Pritchard, UNM student program specialist. "Our monthly workshops are designed to provide the necessary tools and information they need to assist their children through a step-by-step process. I welcome parents to bring their student with them so they both receive the information,”

Space is limited. Reserve your spot by calling 277-0401.
