Paying for College: A VSAC How-to Special
Live with Viewer Call-in

Tues., Oct. 19, at 8 pm

Help with higher education is available from the Vermont Student Assistance Corporation (VSAC) on VPT's debut of "Public Square." Host Rob Michalak will interview VSAC staff members about the resources available to help Vermonters apply for and secure financial aid for college.

In addition, VSAC counselors will be in the VPT studio during the broadcast so that viewers can call and speak privately with a representative. A toll-free number will be announced during the broadcast.

VSAC was established by the Vermont Legislature in 1965 to help Vermonters plan and pay for education beyond high school. This is the first of two VPT broadcasts with VSAC; next spring, "Public Square" will tackle adult learning opportunities.

"Paying for College: A VSAC How-to Special" will be repeated on Sat., Oct. 23, at 8:30 am.
