Financial aid refers to funding intended to help students pay for college costs including tuition and room and board. It makes up the difference between what a student and their family can afford and the total cost of college. Financial aid comes in two forms: needs-based aid such as grants, loans, and work-study that are based on financial need; and merit-based aid such as scholarships that are based on academic or other achievements. To qualify for needs-based aid, students must fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) using their W-2 tax forms and their parents' W-2 forms to determine their estimated family contribution toward college costs.

Originally constructed to protect China's northern border, it is 7.8 meters high and 5 meters wide, making it one of the largest structures ever built.

My mother is the author's hero. She is from India and came to Japan alone at age 32 not knowing the language. She faced many challenges as a new mother in a foreign country, such as difficulties finding doctors and healthy food as a vegetarian while pregnant. Despite obstacles with her husband's family and raising children as a single parent at times, she remained brave, positive, and always put her children first by teaching English, cooking dinner, and working after they slept. Now with her kids older, she is studying Japanese with a goal of acting again.
J. Robin Warren and Barry J. Marshall won the 2005 Nobel Prize in Medicine for discovering that Helicobacter pylori bacteria are the primary cause of peptic ulcers and some stomach cancers. Their finding that H. pylori infection, not stress, caused most ulcers revolutionized treatment by providing antibiotics as a cure. Though their discovery was initially controversial, they persisted in proving its significance, showing that ulcers and some stomach cancers could now be effectively treated and prevented.

He rose through the ranks of the military during the French Revolution. As a general, he led successful campaigns in Italy and Egypt in the late 1790s, becoming increasingly powerful and influential.

The next Phi Ta Khon festival will take place on June 20-21 in Dansai County, Loei.
