Homecoming Buttons
Funds from the sale of Northwestern’s Homecoming Buttons are the main source of income for Homecoming.
The button is only $10 and provides entrance to the Miss Cinderella Pageant competition and Talent Night, the football game, as well as discounts and other incentives from a list of Alva merchants during the week of homecoming; it’s more than a $38 value! Each homecoming button is numbered and has a chance to win $500 in Alva Chamber Bucks. The winning button will be drawn during the homecoming football game, and the drawn number must be present to win.

Do I have to include my parents's information on the FAFSA?
There are 13 questions on the FAFSA that determine whether a student is “independent” or “dependent.” If you can answer any one question “Yes” and have the documentation to verify the answer, you are “independent” and can skip questions about your parent’s income and assets.
Can I work during the break between semesters?
Any work performed by a student during breaks must be approved in advance by the Financial Aid Office
Are grants and scholarships available for graduate work?
Generally, the answer is no. However, some foundation departmental scholarships specify that the recipient can be a graduate student.
