Your College Admissions and Financial Aid Expert

"Are you looking to find the best colleges for your student – academically, socially AND financially ?

Does the college admissions process have you feeling overwhelmed and confused?

Are you worried about overpaying for your child's college education?"

    We all know that a college education is essential these days.  It's the cornerstone to your student's future.  But getting in to college these days is more confusing and more competitive than ever before -- not everyone who applies to a college gets in, even if they can pay for it!  

    And, regardless of how much money you make or have, PAYING for college isn't getting any easier, either!

    Overwhelmed mom

    You don't want to "play the 


    lottery" and leave things to chance when it comes to your child's college opportunities or the money you need to make college more affordable.

    Now, before we go any further, let's agree that it's not your fault if you're feeling anxious or overwhelmed and there's nothing wrong with you, either! 

    Getting in to college wasn't always like this and no one is really showing you how to get this all done.  You're likely getting bits and pieces about what you should be doing, but no one is showing you step-by-step how to actually get it done!  

    Your student's high school's idea of "help" will be to throw a ton of information at you about what you need to do -- get good grades, take your tests, participate in activities, file for financial aid -- so, they'll TELL you about it, but they won't show you exactly how to do it nor will they walk you step-by-step through it.

    The colleges certainly aren't going to help you figure out how to evaluate their competition or see their own flaws or make sure you get every dollar in financial aid you're entitled to!  

    So, it's up to you to figure it all out. But...

    If you're like most busy families these days, you've got A LOT on your plate:  work, school work, sports (they could be a category all by themselves!) activities, family obligations, clubs, vacations -- just to name a few!  

    And now that the time is here to start thinking about college, you're adding even MORE to your already overloaded plate!  You've got to find time (and money) to set some career goals, figure out what colleges are looking for, know what you want from a college, prepare for standardized tests, look for colleges, visit colleges, write essays -- and that's just covering the basics!

    But, there is a solution! You can get NOTICED in the college admissions office, get IN at the schools that are right for you and get MONEY to help pay the bill -- in half the time!

    The college admissions and financial aid process doesn't have to be stressful, confusing or overwhelming if you approach it the right way.  It takes knowing how to make yourself stand out and making it easy for the colleges to say "YES".  

    And, the same things that make you appealing to the admissions office can make you more competitive for the MONEY available in the financial aid office!
