About the Minnesota College Goal Program
Minnesota College Goal is a statewide volunteer program that provides free information and assistance to students and families who are applying for financial aid for post secondary education.
Minnesota College Goal brings together financial aid professionals from colleges and universities, along with other volunteers, to help college-bound students and their families complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid). This form is required for any student seeking federal and state financial aid, including grants and loans at all colleges in the country. Meet the 2012-2013 Steering Committee.
The Minnesota College Goal program was created by the Indiana Student Financial Aid Association with funding from Lilly Endowment, Inc., and with supplemental support from Lumina Foundation for Education. Since 2001, Lumina Foundation has provided funds and the model to help establish College Goal Sunday in other states.
College Goal Sunday and USA Funds are working to bring the program to many more states, with the ultimate goal of each state offering a College Goal Sunday program to its residents. Currently, College Goal Sunday events are being held in 40 states and the District of Columbia and is managed by USA Funds.
