Representatives from the California Student Aid Commission, Scholarshare and Wells Fargo will be on hand to discuss financial aid and planning options along with representatives from University of California Berkeley, University of California Davis, California State University, East Bay, University of San Francisco, Chabot College and Ohlone College.
“This is an opportunity for families to not only be introduced to schools in the area and their academic requirements, but also to learn how to financially prepare for the college journey and to take advantage of the many resources available,” Wieckowski said.
