    If you’re a typical parent with college-bound students, you’re probably overwhelmed.

    You want to help your sons and daughters make the right choices and prevent overpaying for their education.

     

    You’re not alone!

     

    You could save tens of thousands of dollars on a single college education. Parents of more than one child heading to college in the next few years can save even more.


    We teach you how to:

    ✓  Minimize your out-of-pocket expenses
    ✓  Maximize aid eligibility
    ✓  Understand the FAFSA & the CSS Profile
    ✓  Compare Public vs. Private Costs – Know the Facts
    ✓  Develop Best Practices for School Selection

     

    Difficult questions and potentially expensive pitfalls are inevitable within the college planning process.

     

    Whether your student is already in college, a senior in high school, or just starting their elementary school years, planning for college can never start too early.
