St. Cloud State University has been given a $420,000 grant from Great Lakes Higher Education Corporation. The grant is designed to help "at-risk" students overcome financial obstacles through 2019.
This is the peak season for high school seniors and their parents for filling-out financial aid forms for college. Eric Berg is the Vice President For Enrollment at the College of St. Scholastica. He says you shouldn't just focus on the cost for the freshman year, but rather the total cost to get a degree.
