Latino Outreach Expands Services

On Monday at 6 p.m. there will be a College and Career Readiness event at the Fallon campus to help students complete their Nevada Promise scholarship application and learn about the various opportunities that are available to them.

For more information: 775-445-3215.

FAFSA Night on Dec. 5

Mark Wednesday, Dec. 5 on your calendar. From 3 to 6 p.m., WNC will hold a FAFSA night on the Fallon campus.

It has been found that students who complete the financial aid application process with the college’s support services team eliminate common errors and ensure the steps are fully completed.

Please take the time to contact and meet with WNC’s helpful team.
