So, you've got a teen who wants to go to college...

But you don't want to pay for it with loans, right?

Let's get real about college for a minute!

My parents friends...

  • Your child should wait until senior year of high school to start preparing for college
  • If they don't get scholarships, financial aid will cover everything
  • College is easy and inexpensive

  • Your family should start preparing for college no later than 9th grade (we've got a lot to do)
  • You have to qualify for financial aid, and IF you get it, the maximum amount awarded is less than $6,500 per year, totaling $26,000 for 4 years
  • College costs an average of $20,000 per year, totaling over $80,000 for 4 years

  • The average graduation rate is now 4 - 6 years
  • With maximum financial aid, you will still owe at least $54,000 for 4 years (and up to $81,000 for 6 years) - for a low cost college
  • Even if they get good grades and win a merit scholarship, that amount stays the same every year, but the cost of attendance rises every year - leaving you with an unpaid balance each.and.every.semester!
