We have been working with our seniors to get them ready for Kansas Apply Free Days, October 7-9, by having deep discussions about careers and colleges, certificate programs and military enlistment. We've worked on resumes, requested letters of recommendation, and edited personal statements. Whether you are a parent or grandparent, a mentor or a neighbor, please encourage the young people in your life to take advantage of this opportunity to apply to Kansas schools for free.
As noted in the on the KBOR website, https://www.kansasregents.org/students/apply-free-days, it is always free to apply at some colleges and universities, but by focusing on getting applications done at school where this support for the process, we hope to ensure that every student has the opportunity to pursue his or her dreams.
This will be the first of many efforts, including a future FAFSA night, where we will work to make post-secondary education attainable for all our students, in whatever form that might take.
