What is College Goal Sunday? College Goal Sunday SM is a nation-wide outreach initiative, funded by the Lumina Foundation, which seeks to provide information about and access to Federal Financial Aid to students of underserved and underrepresented populations.

College Goal Sunday is Not… A Recruitment Effort A Marketing Opportunity A College Night

College Goal Sunday The event is offered free of charge to students & families who need financial aid assistance completing the financial aid paperwork and/or completing the web based application.

History of College Goal Sunday College Goal Sunday began in Indiana in 1989 as a joint project of the Indiana Student Financial Aid Association (ISFAA) and the State Student Assistance Commission of Indiana (SSACI) Funding from Lilly Endowment, Inc. The program aided families in breaking what was perceived as one of the biggest barriers to higher education, the financial aid process. College Goal Sunday has since expanded and is now a Nation-wide initiative.
