$ For College

Opportunity Pathways
Money is available to help you go to college. Financial aid can be either need-based or merit-based. Need-based aid is awarded to students who cannot pay for college without assistance. Merit-based aid is awarded to students based on academic, athletic, or other achievements.
Take a look at some of the grant, scholarship, and loan programs in Washington State. These programs are referred to as "Opportunity Pathways."
