Financial Aid or Assistance
Capitol City Careers is an eligible institution under the FEDERAL PELL GRANT, FSEOG (Federal Supplement Educational Opportunity Grant), FEDERAL WORK STUDY (FWS), and the PERKINS Loan programs. Capitol City Careers is also eligible under the Federal Education Loans and the PLUS Loan. Eligibility for the above programs is determined upon submission of a Financial Aid Application. To receive Financial Aid you must maintain satisfactory progress and be in good standing according to institutional standards.

A full-time Financial Sercies Officer is available to provide assistance in any of the above areas. Students are also encouraged to consult with their high school guidance counselor, employer, labor unions, and social, fraternal, or religious organizations for information on private funds to help finance their education.

Career Services
Upon graduation, career assistance is available to all students at no additional cost. Students are assisted with resume preparation interviewing techniques, and employment opportunities. While Capitol City Careers is eager to assist graduates in finding rewarding job opportunities, neither the school nor any staff member can guarantee employment. While many employers come to the school in search of qualified job applicants, the school also actively solicits employers for entry-level opportunities. An updated assessment of career opportunities is maintained in the Career Services Office. In addition, the Career Services Office also maintains a part-time employment job board for all students while attending school.

Advising
The staff and faculty of the school are always available to assist students with problems whether school-related or personal in nature. Students will be provided advisement when academic or attendance problems arise.

Housing - Transportation
Since most students live within a reasonable commuting distance of the school, off campus housing is not provided. The school will, however, provide assistance to those students who might have a housing requirement in the immediate area. Transportation, room and board, and housing costs vary with the individual requirements. Since Austin offers a wide range of accommodations to meet individual needs, a more accurate estimate of costs can be obtained by contacting the Student Services Director.

Drug Prevention Program
Capitol City Careers has adopted and implemented a program to prevent the illicit use of drugs and alcohol abuse by students and staff. To promote drug awareness and prevention, anti-drug brochures and posters are displayed in general student and staff areas. Information regarding drug and alcohol abuse and community resources for treatment is provided to all students and staff.
