High School Counselor
The E-Scholarship website is for ALL New Diana students and families. The website is http://www.collegeguidanceconsultants.com . The username and password are located in an envelope outside the counselor’s office. This site provides access to approximately 40 pages of scholarships per month.
The single most important step for receiving financial aid or scholarships is to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. This form must be filled out even if the student does not qualify for federal aid. This is because most colleges will not distribute any scholarships or financial aid unless the FAFSA has been received. Parents (and students if they work) will need copies of their 2007 Tax Returns.
