What is the most important year for determining financial aid awards?
Early planning, prior to the student’s junior year in high school, may allow the family to move certain assets and use pre-emptive strategies that can be very beneficial to the family’s overall financial situation with regard to financial aid. A long-term goal for how the family is going to pay for all their children to go to college needs to be considered, not just an immediate solution. We help parents find a way to pay for a college education without spending their life savings. Each family has a unique situation so there is no “one-size-fits-all” solution.
