The College of Western Idaho (CWI) is excited to partner with Boise State University and TRiO Educational Opportunity Center to present The Road to College for New Americans at CWI’s Ada County Campus Pintail Center (APIN) on Friday, Sept. 15.
The event is a terrific opportunity for refugees and immigrants to learn more about attending college in the Treasure Valley. Staff and faculty from both colleges will be available to field questions about obtaining a college degree, GED, and learning about English classes.
In addition, financial aid representatives will be on hand to help prospective students complete paperwork. Future learners should bring educational documents and tax forms from 2016 to apply for classes and financial aid.
“I serve all students, but I have a passion for helping refugees and immigrants navigate the educational system,” said Erica Compton, manager at Student Advising and Success, who is helping to organize the event. If you have questions, contact Compton by email: ericacompton@cwi.edu.
