For students trying to make the best financial decision about college there a new resource that should make the process easier.

The Washington Post just launched a new database compiling nearly 1,000 free-tuition programs nationwide, supported by institutional commitments and state policy efforts. The resource spans 2-year colleges, 4-year institutions, and vocational pathways.

It can help college advisors, students, and families better understand options that reduce financial barriers to postsecondary education.

📣Important: Don’t Miss Out on Money for Your Child’s Future📣

All families with 1st–8th grade Washtenaw public/charter students need to turn in their My Future Fund permission form by December 31, 2025.

Here’s why this matters:
· Early Scholarship Account: A completed form ensures eligible children in grades 1–8 can get a My Future Fund account.
· Extra $475 Bonus: If the form isn’t in by December 31, your child could lose this bonus money.

❗Bottom line: Turning in the form now means your child gets money for college or training after high school. Waiting could mean missing out.

Visit www.myfuturefund.org for more information and to fill out the permission form.
