MVCAP posts free daily newsletter - http://paper.li/rottenbornj
The Mahoning Valley College Access Program (MVCAP) is now posting a free online newsletter for students, parents, and school personnel on college admissions, financial aid, and related topics, according to the nonprofit organization’s executive director, Joe Rottenborn.

Drawn from his tweets for those who prefer Twitter as a newspaper, The Joe Rottenborn Daily provides headlines and full-text links to various college news articles. This MVCAP newsletter is available free around mid-morning seven days a week at this address: http://paper.li/rottenbornj

Online sites combed daily for college articles include CNN, USA Today, The New York Times, Inside Higher Ed, The Huffington Post, The College Solution of CBS MoneyWatch, Education Week, The Chronicle of Higher Education, The Wall Street Journal, Time, and Newsweek.

The MVCAP online newsletter was developed through a $20,000 Great Lakes College Access Investment Grant from the Ohio College Access Network (OCAN).

Anyone can e-mail MVCAP (jrottenb@kent.edu) with questions about college admissions and financial aid. All information is provided free.

Founded in 2001, the MVCAP has provided free services to over 8,500 students, parents, and educators in the Mahoning Valley. It has raised more than $1 million dollars in grants and charitable contributions and awarded 160 Last-Dollar Scholarships, most for $1,000. MVCAP has office space provided gratis in its three-county service area (Columbiana, Mahoning, and Trumbull) at Kent State Salem, Youngstown State, and KSU Trumbull.
