“Federal financial assistance has helped me immensely. Programs like the federal work study as well as subsidized and unsubsidized loans have made it possible for me to attend college in the first place. As I come from a large family in which my siblings and I are the first generation to attend college, federal assistance is necessary for lower middle class families and students like me to pursue their dreams. Without it, access to further education becomes limited, and low-income families will face barriers in bettering their lives. This support is necessary for so many students like me across Wisconsin.”
