Do you have children who will be looking at college in the next few years or might you be thinking of returning to school yourself? Now is a great time to start thinking about the college financial aid process and ways to boost college savings. The earlier you start, the more confident and relaxed you will feel when it is time to apply for financial aid.

Join Jessica Whittier, College Access Counselor with the Finance Authority of Maine for this 1-hour workshop as we talk all things paying for college.  This is live online using ZOOM.

This workshop is offered by FAME in partnership with adult education programs across Aroostook, Hancock, Penobscot and Washington Counties. 

Ellsworth Adult & Community Education is working behind the scenes to offer a menu of opportunities that meets the needs of most adults. The first step is to meet with one of our student advisors to assess your needs and consult about the best workshops to attend.   This is an in-person class.

Give us a call at 207.664.7110 to schedule an appointment.

Ellsworth Adult & Community Education encourages adult learners to explore college options with Maine Education Opportunity Center (MEOC) Advisor Suzanne Graves-Hall for individual advising in the four steps in the college process: admissions, financial aid, career and study skills.

Suzanne is available two days a week (Tuesdays and Thursdays) by appointment at the UMA-Ellsworth Center.  Please email Suzanne at suzanne.graveshall@maine.edu or call 1-800-281-3703 for an appointment.

If you need support preparing to use ZOOM, we can assist you with resources (guides and videos) and in-person or online practice sessions.  You will need a device with a camera and microphone (internal or external), and to have ZOOM downloaded on your device.

This session is offered by appointment, live online using ZOOM, or in-person; ongoing enrollment.  Please reach out to us!

If you're interested in learning more about this workshop, register here and we'll call you to schedule a phone or in-person meeting with one of our advisors.
