Cannon School hosts 'Funding a College Education'

As college application deadlines draw near for high school seniors, their parents are seeing dollar signs - thousands of them.

In an effort to help parents and students navigate costs of college, the College Counseling Department at Cannon School is hosting "Funding a College Education."

The free, public event will be held at 7 p.m. on Nov. 27 at the school's Foundation Hall (5801 Poplar Tent Rd., Concord).

The forum will address key strategies for covering rising costs of college. Chad Spencer, associate dean of admission and financial aid at Davidson College, will be in attendance to talk about the financial aid and scholarship process. He will also field questions from participants.
