College Goal Sunday In Parkersburg

Posted: Sun 6:46 PM, Feb 10, 2013

Soon-to-be college students are searching for ways to make it easier to afford tuition.

It's College Goal Sunday across West Virginia.

And WVU-P made sure students questions were answered Sunday afternoon.

Volunteers were on hand helping students find scholarships and get started on their financial aid.

The service is free to anyone who would like some assistance no matter what college they're applying for.

Financial aid experts from the state's non-profit and public universities were there giving advice to students.

Parents appreciate the help WVU-P is offering to kids.

"I think it's great, it saves kids from having to travel distances to different colleges. It just makes it convenient," says Jeff Stern.
