FSDF Day equips parents and students with the critical information needed to pursue higher education and achieve college success.

Through a series of fun, interactive workshops, FSDF Day presenters address frequently asked questions regarding financial aid, admission requirements and the steps students should take during high school to be prepared to succeed in college. The workshops will be presented in English and Spanish.
