River Watchers see college as a possibility thanks to St. Edward's Financial Aide workshops

February 11 – 21, 2013:      70 River Watchers went to St. Edward’s University and visited Ms. Doris Constantine, the Associate Vice President for Student Financial Aide.  Doris talked with the students about financial aide, the process, the important deadlines and how it works at different schools.  This opportunity was set up by E. Nicole Mejia, our St. Edward’s Intern from the Fall Semester of 2012, who will graduate this Spring.  Thanks to Doris and Nicole for this opportunity! Before our visit, many thought college would probably be too expensive for them to afford. Now many  of the River Watchers say it has allowed them to feel like college is a possibility – they feel like they can make it happen.
