Aid Center Opens For Scholarship Applicants Today

The Financial Aid Center will launch its plan for complete coordination of undergraduate scholarships, jobs, and loans today when it hands out scholarship application blanks to all interested students at its offices at 54 Dunster Street.

From now on every scholarship applicant will be considered automatically for a job, if he wants to work and his financial problems are not solved by a scholarship award. Or it he doesn't want a job, he can get a loan--all on the strength of one application to the single office.

Priority Employment

Students with the greatest need will be ranked on a priority list, and if they want to work they will be entitled to the best jobs available at the employment office.

The Aid Center plans to have as many jobs and loans as possible arranged before summer vacation or over the summer, so that students returning next fall will have jobs awaiting them and money problems solved.

Before the new program was arranged by the Aid Center, jobs were arranged by the employment office on a non-priority basis, and loans required a special financial statement.
