It’s no secret that education can be expensive. From tuition to lab fees, there always seems to be a cost. However, during the week of February 24th through 28th, the application fee for many Alabama colleges is being waived.
Dr. Monica P. Mack, Alabama College Application Campaign (ALCAC) Coordinator, stated in a Press Release, “During our college application campaign held in October, we had over 26,000 seniors across the state apply to colleges and universities. Due to the success of this campaign, colleges and universities have agreed to host another event for students.”
Dr. Mack also said, “Students who did not apply to a college or university during the initial campaign are encouraged to participate in this event.”
The Alabama College Application Campaign, which has existed for over a decade, and the Cash for College FAFSA initiative were combined to create one program. The program aims to have more students apply to college early and complete their FAFSA applications. The deadline is February 28th. The following is a list of each school participating in the Alabama College Application Campaign.
