It was nice to be given an opportunity to bring a good number of our graduating seniors to this " Dreamin' of College Cal Grant Presentation" coordinated by Travis Credit Union. The presentation was held at Cal Maritime Academy in Vallejo and a total of about 500 high school seniors from all over the bay area. We got welcome remarks from the President and CEO of Travis Federal Credit Union, followed by the presentation of colors Travis Air Force Base Honor Guard. We also got to hear what Cal Maritime has to offer in majors as well as their total enrollment.
A motivational speaker, Wil Cason, talked to the students about going for their dreams and overcoming obstacles that come their way. He shared his story and how he got to where he is at.
The presentation was very informational. It gave the students a head start on what they need to do regarding Financial Aid and Cal grant. The students were also given a folder with valuable information about FAFSA, Cal Grant and scholarship web site.
