In an effort to encourage high school students
in Idaho to continue their education, beyond
high school, the University of Idaho and the
Extension Offices are sponsoring a special
program to provide information and help students
to overcome barriers that might prevent them
from enrolling in higher education.
This program is called "Enroll Idaho." The
event is taking place around the state,
including in Bonners Ferry tonight. These
free, one-night information sessions are open to
high school seniors, parents/guardians and high
school teachers and staff. Attendees can ask
questions and learn about the available pathways
to college and the University of Idaho as well
as:
-The long-term benefits of going to college
-Ways to pay for college
-How to apply for admission and financial aid
-Plus -- attendees will be entered for a chance
to win $500 for books and supplies.
“Enroll Idaho” is a new initiative providing a
direct path to Idaho universities and colleges
for all Idaho’s high school graduates.
Today on Tuesday, November 10, at 7:00 p.m., Rob
Spears, the University of Idaho Athletic
Director, will host an informational session at
the University of Idaho Boundary County
Extension office in Bonners Ferry, located at
6447 Kootenai Street. The event is open to high
school seniors, their parents or guardians, and
high school teachers and staff.
This Enroll Idaho event will be taking place
simultaneously at 43 locations across the state.
