Planning and paying for college or technical school can be overwhelming. This year, Katy families are paying as much as $22,000 to $43,000 annually to send their students to public and private colleges and universities in Texas.  To help keep families well-informed about options when it comes to paying for college, Katy ISD Community Education is hosting several free College Funding Workshops.

College Funding Workshop attendees will learn how to:

  • Plug into $10+ billion of grant money
  • Learn how private colleges may be less expensive than state schools
  • Identify forgivable loans exceeding $46,000
  • Learn about out-of-state public schools which don’t charge out of state tuition
  • Learn how to improve your financial aid awards
  • Identify schools more generous with their aid dollars
  • Learn how higher income families can qualify for “need based” financial aid
