Do you want more money and more options? 
Get more education beyond high school

If you want to secure a better future [ [link removed] ], further education and training beyond high school can lead to a good job, higher wages, and more. Financial aid like WA Grant [ [link removed] ] helps make college, trade school, or technical school affordable.

*Why apply for college or training? Adults with a college degree or certificate:*


* Are more likely to enjoy their work.
* Can change careers more easily.
* Are less likely to be unemployed.
* Live longer, healthier lives.
* Earn around $1 million more over their career than high school graduates.

Need to start working sooner than later? Move beyond minimum wage with an apprenticeship [ [link removed] ] or other job training. Even a one-year program at a community college or technical college can increase your future earnings. In an apprenticeship, you earn while you learn. In many cases, apprentices in approved programs can get paid to work and use financial aid to cover out-of-pocket costs like tuition, fees, and materials.

Put your passion to work. More education means more job stability and higher earnings—for life.

Learn more and plan your future [ [link removed] ] on the Washington Student Achievement Council (WSAC) website [ [link removed] ].

¿Quieres más dinero y más opciones?
Obtenga más educación más allá de la preparatoria

Si desea asegurar un futuro mejor, continuar con la educación y la capacitación más allá de la preparatoria puede conducir a un buen trabajo, salarios más altos y más. La ayuda financiera como WA Grant ayuda a que la universidad, la escuela vocacional o la escuela técnica sean asequibles.

¿Por qué postularse para la universidad o la capacitación? Adultos con título o certificado universitario:


* Es más probable que disfruten de su trabajo.
* Puede cambiar de carrera más fácilmente.
* Tienen menos probabilidades de estar desempleados.
* Vivir vidas más largas y saludables.
* Ganan alrededor de $1 millón más a lo largo de su carrera que los graduados de la preparatoria.

¿Necesitas empezar a trabajar cuanto antes? Vaya más allá del salario mínimo con un aprendizaje u otra capacitación laboral. Incluso un programa de un año en un colegio comunitario o un colegio técnico puede aumentar sus ingresos futuros. En un aprendizaje, ganas mientras aprendes. En muchos casos, a los aprendices en programas aprobados se les puede pagar por trabajar y utilizar la ayuda financiera para cubrir costos de bolsillo como matrícula, tarifas y materiales.

Pon tu pasión a trabajar. Más educación significa más estabilidad laboral y mayores ingresos, de por vida.
