FAFSA: Easy As ABC, Simple As 123
Many people who have been through the FAFSA tunnel will tell you that filling out the form was a “breeze.”

And then there are those who say that breeze blew hard, and in their faces.

We want you to be in the former, “Team FAFSA” group, so if you steer clear of some basic things that generally get people in trouble that will help...a lot. Avoid These Common FAFSA Mistakes tells you what NOT to do.
As Basic As A Little Black Dress
Anyone who has been schooled in the ABCs of fashion knows that a “little black dress” is a basic that needs to be in every woman’s closet.

Think of “Basic Advice for Starting on the Road to College” as that “LBD" that every high schooler and their parent (of any gender) needs to have on hand as well.

Once your kid hits those teen years, it’s just a matter of time before you are deep into the college admissions process. Having something that will serve as a dependable resource can be a lifesaver.
What’s Up Ahead on The Road…
We would never steer you wrong when it comes to a service that we know will ease a lot of stress.

That’s why this is the 3rd webinar/workshop we're offering with Prompt. Based on the responses from the first few, we're trying to offer more dates to accommodate everyone's busy schedules.

If your student needs help with their essay, it's worth your time to attend.

WHEN: Sunday, September 22nd at 8:30pm EST.

Here's what one parent emailed me the other day:

"Hi Debbie,

Just wanted to let you know that my twins just started working with Prompt (they attended the webinar at end of August) and we couldn't be happier with them. My daughter just received the review of the first draft of her CA essay and I feel that the advice is spot on. Also, the support staff have been great and very responsive to my technical glitches (I bought 6 credits using the R2C promo code but somehow linked them all to my son and none to my daughter and they were able to sort it out within minutes).

So far, we're very, very happy with them. Thank you so much for letting the Paying for College 101 FB page know about this great service."
