Latinos few at college expo – Biloxi, Mississippi

Tagged:

“The Sallie Mae Fund has a bus that is crisscrossing the country to provide information on how to find money for college to one of the groups least likely to do so: Latinos.

One of the last stops of the Paying for College bus tour was at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum for the Gulf Coast Counselors’ Association’s college expo on Monday morning.

Lilyan Prado, a spokeswoman for the Sallie Mae Fund, the nonprofit arm of Sallie Mae, America’s largest provider of student loans, said the tour is reaching out to all students, but is focusing on Latinos for a good reason.”
