On Tuesday, Feb. 16, from 2-6 p.m. financial aid experts from Polk County Schools and Isothermal Community College will be available in the Polk County High Student Services office to assist with FAFSA completion.

On Thursday, Feb. 18, Peter Vogel, Polk’s College Adviser, will be available to help in the county library from 4-6 p.m.

To finish their FAFSA, families should come prepared with their 2015 tax returns and their FSA IDs.
