PROCESS

We understand that planning for college can feel overwhelming. Our goal is to make the process more manageable by helping your family understand your options, prepare financially, and make confident decisions along the way.

We begin by using our knowledge of the FAFSA and CSS Profile to help you understand how financial aid may impact your family. Together, we look at what your family can realistically afford and help identify colleges that fit within your overall financial goals.

We then explore scholarship opportunities that may be available to your students, in addition to the financial aid your family may be eligible to receive. Our goal is to help you take advantage of as many opportunities as possible to make college more affordable.

Once your student begins receiving acceptance letters, we help you compare and evaluate your options. We look beyond the acceptance itself to consider the overall cost, your students’ academic goals, and what each college means for your family financially.

Ultimately, we want to help your family choose a college that feels right on all levels, a school that is a good academic fit for your student, a comfortable financial fit for your family, and a decision you can feel confident about together.
