A college education is one of the most expensive purchases a parent will ever make, but it is also one of the most essential. For many families, the cost of college seems completely unaffordable, yet the financial aid rules are confusing no matter where you turn for answers. At this 45-minute session followed by 15 minutes of Q&A, you will hear simple answers to your tough questions: 

 

  • How do I learn what the approximate cost of college will be?
  • What is the difference between need-based and merit aid?
  • Will my child qualify for merit aid?
  • Will my child qualify for financial aid?
  • How and when do we apply for financial aid?
  • Which colleges are the most generous with merit scholarships/financial aid?
