As spring registration begins, the Student Money Management Center and the Financial Aid and Scholarships Office, will offer students a one-stop shop for all of their financial aid needs with the inaugural ScholarX-travaganza.

The event will be held from 6-8 p.m. on Thursday (Dec. 4) in College of Humanities and Social Sciences Building Room 210.

During the event, Ar’Niqua Coleman, from financial aid, will give a brief presentation about login and completion procedures, and students can receive assistance in completing the ScholarX application.

ScholarX is a program that simplifies the scholarship application process by matching students who applied online through the program with any of the campus scholarships he or she may be qualified for.

“Scholarships are an added income stream to students’ budgets. Many students need additional funding for college but are a little intimidated by the application process,” said SMMC director Patsy Collins. “The SMMC and FASO want to help students apply so that their application can be reviewed for scholarships within the university.”

Students are encouraged to bring their own laptop, and pizza and cookies will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis.
