College offering free financial aid help Oct. 11

Event open to students, parents, and the community

Randolph Community College will host its Fall FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) Day Event on Saturday, Oct. 11, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. in rooms 106 and 108 of the Continuing Education and Industrial Center (CEIC).

“FAFSA Day is one of the ways RCC ensures that our current and future students have the financial resources and support that they need to reach their educational goals,” President/CEO Dr. Shah Ardalan said. “By removing barriers to financial aid, we are opening doors to opportunity for every student.”

The event is open to all high school students, current college students, families, and adult learners. Attendees will receive one-on-one guidance from trained professionals to complete and submit the FAFSA for the 2026-27 academic year. Participants who bring their 2024 tax documentation can begin the application process immediately.

The event will also feature refreshments and a giveaway for a Dell laptop. All who attend will be entered to win.
