Plan to Attend Financial Aid Information Session on Feb. 15

Do you need money for college? Attend the Western Dakota Technical College (WDTC) Financial Aid Hands-On Session at the college, 800 Mickelson Dr., from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 15. This event is free and open to everyone - not only those planning to attend WDTC. Registration is not necessary.

Financial Aid representatives will help you complete the 2022-2023 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA is a free government form applicants fill out to find out what Federal financial aid they are eligible for such as grants, student loans, and work-study (part-time employment) to help pay for college.

To apply for the FAFSA, bring your 2020 tax returns and 2020 W2 information for parents and students (if dependents).

There are several reasons to apply for financial aid:
  • You must apply to receive Federal student loans (not just the free money).
  • Many scholarships require the FAFSA to be completed.
  • You are not committing to borrow student loans by completing the FAFSA.
Admissions staff will also be at the Feb. 15 event to help answer questions regarding WDTC enrollment. Scholarships Office staff will be present to assist with WDTC Foundation Scholarships, Build Dakota Scholarship, and third-party scholarship applications. 

For more information, email Financial Aid at Finaid@wdt.edu or call (605) 718-2988.
