Ga. holding 'Apply to College Week'

By The Associated Press
ATLANTA - Georgia is holding its first ever ``Apply to College Week'' to encourage high school students in Gainesville and seven other cities to pursue a higher education.

Volunteers from the Georgia colleges and universities will visit high schools across the state Nov. 11-13 to help students fill out applications on GAcollege411.org. The Web site, which is run by the state, is a one-stop-shop for applying to the state's colleges and requesting financial aid.

The program is aimed at students who are the first in their family to go to college. Volunteers will visit high schools in Blairsville, Waycross, Loganville, Dawson, Gainesville, Ellenwood, Columbus and Thomson.
