Free Educational Workshop for Parents with College Bound Students
Our workshops pick up where typical financial aid nights leave off. We don’t just explain how to file for financial aid, we explain how schools calculate aid packages, including how much of a family’s assets and income are factored in. We detail the rising costs of college, and we teach parents the financial aid process so they are better-informed and better-prepared. There is absolutely no reason to pay too much for college.
Reasons Parents Attend Our Workshops:
- They’re worried they won’t have enough money to send their children to the college of their dreams.
- They think the current state of the economy will have a major, negative impact on the amount of financial aid available.
- They simply don’t know how to get all their children through school without going broke.
