Tip for HBCU College Decision Day (May 1st):

• Research and Compare Financial Aid Packages: As you make your decision, carefully review and compare the financial aid packages offered by the HBCUs you’re considering. Look for scholarships, grants, and work-study opportunities to help fund your education and minimize student loan debt.

Stay tuned for more scholarship opportunities and tips in the next Ms. Frugal Scholarship Saturdays!

Remember, every application is a step closer to your educational goals.
