Time for College-Bound Seniors to Fill Out the FAFSA
High school seniors planning to attend college or technical school this fall should fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, also called theFAFSA, as soon as possible.
FAFSA - Free Application for Federal Student Aid
www.fafsa.gov
Apply now! Federal Student Aid has more than $150 billion available to help you pay for school.

 
 
The information on the FAFSA determines if students qualify for federal grants and student loans. It also is required to apply for state grants and scholarships. In addition, many colleges use the information to award their own grants and scholarships. Therefore, students should submit the FAFSA even if they feel it is unlikely they will qualify for aid.
 
The FAFSA asks for information about income, assets and expenses. A formula set by Congress determines eligibility for federal and state aid. If the student is considered a dependent under federal guidelines, both the student and parents must provide financial information. Nearly all students going directly to college from high school are considered dependent.
 
Some student aid programs have limited money and provide funds on a first-come, first-served basis, so it is important to submit the FAFSA as soon as possible.
 
To find links to useful education websites, go towww.gotocollege.ky.gov. For more information about Kentucky scholarships and grants, visit www.kheaa.com.


Applications for Kentucky Farm Bureau’s college scholarships available now
Louisville, KY (January 6, 2016) – The holiday season may have just come to a close, but Kentucky Farm Bureau (KFB) has one more gift to give to a select number of high school seniors across the state – college scholarships. Later this spring, the KFB Education Foundation will award college scholarships ranging from $400 to $4,000 to 87 high school seniors pursuing a four-year degree.
To be considered, students must complete the application available for download at kyfb.com/scholarships and return the requested material to KFB postmarked by February 29, 2016. Qualifying students will have at least a 3.5 grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) or a minimum 23 ACT score, be the child of a KFB member, and finish high school within the year in which they apply.
KFB also offers four additional scholarships, ranging from $1,000 to $3,000. To be considered for these college scholarships, students must meet the varied criteria outlined for each, complete the appropriate downloadable application available atkyfb.com/scholarships and return the requested material to KFB postmarked by April 29, 2016.
“The Foundation’s goal is to assist as many individuals as possible in attaining their educational pursuits,” said Susie Tanner, Coordinator of KFB’s Education Foundation. “Post-secondary education costs continue to rise and Farm Bureau scholarships help defray some of the expenses associated with obtaining a degree. There is no better investment for the organization than to invest in our members and their children.”
KFB’s Education Foundation, created to help Farm Bureau members and their families reach their goal of obtaining post-secondary education, was formed in 1953. During the last 62 years, the Education Foundation has awarded approximately 1,500 college scholarships – worth more than $2.3 million dollars – to both traditional and non-traditional students.
To learn more about these and several other college scholarships offered by Kentucky Farm Bureau, visit kyfb.com/scholarships.





Coalition Launches Student Competition, Targets Paying for College
The Kentucky College & Career Connection (Ky3C) coalition invites middle and high school students to create 30-second Public Service Announcements promoting the idea that there’s more than one way to pay for college.
 
Challenge winners will have their work produced and broadcast on television and radio stations statewide. Entries must be received by February 1, 2016.
 
The competition is part of the Kentucky Department of Education’s Student Technology Leadership (STLP) Program and its Digital Products Online Judging competition.
 
For their projects, students will choose one of five strategies that lower the cost of college: find their career path; fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA); get good grades to earn scholarships; get a head start on college classes; and start saving now. There will be winners in each category.
 
Submissions will be evaluated by judges from across the state, many of whom will be students. Finalists will be announced in February and offered the opportunity to work with media professionals to further develop and finalize their product for broadcast. Winners in each category will be recognized in April at the statewide STLP awards ceremony at Rupp Arena in Lexington.
 
More information, including the challenge rules and requirements, is available at http://stlp.education.ky.gov, and then click on DOPJ.

The Nomination Process
To be eligible to accept an offer of appointment to the Academy, applicants must be nominated by a legally authorized nominating entity. The process of securing a nomination is competitive and lengthy. It is recommended that students begin applying for a nomination at the same time that they are completing their Pre-Candidate Questionnaire.
Read more about Nominations to determine the categories for which your students are eligible, then they should contact their appropriate nominating authority to make their request. Students should request a nomination in all categories for which they are eligible, and do so as early as possible.
The deadlines of nominating sources vary and could be as soon as early September. Regardless of when they initiate their process, nomination's must be received by the Academy no later than January 31. As a reminder, the application processes and deadlines are separate for the nominations processes and deadlines.
During a Student's Junior Year
Junior year is when the application process to the Academy truly begins. Students will start by filling out the Pre-Candidate Questionnaire, which becomes available online March 1 every year and starts the application process.
Between March 1 of their junior year and December 31 of their senior year, they must submit a completed Pre-Candidate Questionnaire. When a student is ready to begin the application, they can visit the Pre-Candidate Questionnaire online.
Between March 1 of their junior year and December 31 of their senior year, they must also request nominations from their state’s congressional representative(s) or other designated nominators.
NOTE: As with any top university, competition for admission to the Academy is extremely high. In addition to applying to the Academy, their college application strategy should include a backup plan. To pursue an interest in the Air Force, they may also wish to request and submit an application for Air Force ROTC.
Who do Students Talk to?
On select dates throughout the year, representatives from the United States Air Force Academy participate in college fairs, visit high schools or speak at community centers across the nation. These events are great opportunities to learn more about what the Academy has to offer.
The majority of our events are held in the fall and spring, with fewer events in the summer months. To learn more about the Academy, check for an event that may be convenient to you and your students.
The United States Air Force Academy strives to create a highly qualified and truly diverse cadet wing at the Academy each year. We are looking to expand our applicant pool across individual characteristics defined by our diversity definition, that include:
Personal life experiences, including having overcome adversity by personal efforts
Geographic background, such as region, rural, suburban, urban
Socioeconomic and educational background, such as academic excellence and/or whether an individual would be a first generation college student
Cultural knowledge and language abilities, with particular emphasis on cultures and languages of strategic importance to the Air Force
Work background, including prior enlisted service
Physical abilities, including athletic prowess
Age, though applicants must be within statutory parameters for academy attendance
In addition to race, ethnicity, and gender. If you have a student who comes from a diverse background in terms of race, ethnicity, or gender, or if their background includes diverse experiences, knowledge or abilities, if they seek an education that is on par with highly selective colleges and universities, and have a desire to service, please have them consider the United States Air Force Academy and become familiar with our application process and admissions requirements. One of our admissions goals is to ensure that students are aware of the opportunities at your United States Air Force Academy.  USAFA Admissions hires newly graduated USAF officers responsible to admissions, outreach and mentoring activities. These admissions advisors are dedicated to spreading the word about their Academy experience, education and the opportunities afforded by the United States Air Force Academy.

My name is Bill Pianovski and I am a Career Track Coordinator in the Kentucky Career Center in Danville. I work under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act helping youth aged 18-24. We are currently trying to build and promote our youth program that focuses on assisting youth with college tuition assistance. We offer Career Track Scholarships covering up to $7,500 per year of the students tuition for 2 years in a high demand field of study. We are trying to get this information out to all graduating or previous students that would qualify. If you could please pass this information on to your students so they may be able to take advantage of this opportunity. Also if you have any school events such as college or career fairs I would be more than happy to attend and have a table set up with information for the students. This is a federally funded program so they are not responsible for any type of repayment. I have attached the program flyer feel free to make copies and hand them out. If you need copies just let me know and I would be more than happy to drop some off for you. If you have any questions or would like more information please feel free to contact me.
 
Thank you for your time.

I wrote back with this question: "Can you give me a list or examples of the high demand fields that would be eligible?"

Mr. Pianovski's response was: "
We have 4 high demand sectors that the training has to fall under. Advanced Manufacturing, Healthcare, Information Technology and Transportation Distribution and Logistics.
These are the 4 target areas that our board has identified as high demand. So this covers a lot of different training programs."
