February is Financial Aid Awareness month! This year, Clever will be supporting the #FinAidFeb movement by giving high school students and their teachers direct access to resources for financial aid, college planning, and scholarship assistance via the Clever Portal. We believe in improving outcomes for all scholars and recognize how important financial aid can be in opening the door to higher education.
Below is a complete list of resources, and who will have access to them for the entire school year.
