F OREWPRIL As a service to students, parents, and the community, the Department of Education is pleased to publish its thirtieth edition of Bulletin No. 15, "Scholarship and Financial Aid for Advanced Training Available to Residents of the State-of Hawaii."This annual publication is prepared primarily for counselors, teachers, and students and.their parents to inform them of the various resources for financial assistance for higher education in Hawaii and elsewhere. Bulletin 15 does not list and describe all financial assistance available. Readers are referred to commercial and government publications in counselors' offices and libraries. This Bulletin does not include programs for financial aid in mainland schools which are available to all qualified applicants- - there are too many to list and describe. It is.suggested that such infgrma- tion be obtained by studying the financi 'al aid catalogs of these institutions. Two ready- "reference indexes to financial ai'd listings, an alphabetical index and a crass reference index, which identifies each financial aid resource by field of study are provided. Local institutions and organizations desiring to include their financial aid programs for listing in this Bulletin may contact the Student Personnel "'Services Section. of the Office of Instructional Services of the Department. (Every attempt has been made to keep the information current and accurate. The Department appreciates the responses and cAperation of educational , institutions, business and industry, community organizations, and individuals ` in the preparation and updating of this Bulletin. Without their support this publication would not have been possible. Congratulations and apprecia- tion are also extended to them for their expressions of faith in the young people of Hawaii through these financial aids, and for making it possible for so many to continue with their education.

Within recent years there have been a number of significant trends (nd changes in the administration of financial aid assistance to students of higher educatiai. These trends and changes include the following: 1. Educational expenses have risen steeply but more and more students are seeking higher education. 2. The federal government has decreased its investments of large sums to students to go on to higher education. 3. There. is a growing practice to award financial aid on the basis of a student's actual need. Wherespossible, parents are expected to contribute a reasonable share to students' post secondary expenses. iii 4. More college's are allocating funds. students in theiform of "package" aid --.combinatiorisjif scholarshi or grant, work-study, and loan. Each: school is encouraged te4develop,as part of its guidance efforts, a -program of financial informdtion, need ident-i icat$on, and'counseling services for all students. There are many coercial and government cations, avail4ble at nominal costs, as well s leaflets and pamphlets which shduld be included in a student center,or counselor's office. This irifor- mation should be made known to students. Traditionally, financialaid programs have been associated with the needy students; however, the tremendous cost of higher education has affected families at all income levels. Therefore, a financill aid progrq should be aimed at all. students.' The admissions and financial aid picture changes periodically. 'Administra- tors, counselors, and teachers are encouraged to attend workshopson college admissions and financial aid which are conducted by the Department, the University of Hawaii, and other colleges in Hawaii to keepup with these changes.
