And On Second Thought...
The deposit is in, and you and your student have made the best decision possible about what school to attend in the fall, given the pandemic. So, now that you've had some time to think about it...are you having cold feet?

We asked a number of members of our Paying For College 101 Facebook group this question, and you might be surprised at their answers.

Should You Not Look a Gift Horse In the Mouth?

We think of our Paying For College 101 Facebook group as a microcosm of the community of families across the country who are heading down the "road to college" with their students.

For that reason, we know their comments are often very close to those of all the other families out there.

Their answers may surprise you, and help you prepare for the coming year, so look for them here.

Student Loan Basics

This is the time of year when you're deciding whether or not to go the student loan route, and we applaud you for planning ahead.

But, if you don't understand the process, going down that route will just lead to frustration and dead ends. 

Join us TONIGHT at 8:30pm EST when we discuss the ABCs (and then some) of Student Loans with Angela Colatriano of College Ave Student Loans.

This will be a great opportunity for those who have some knowledge of the system to refresh and for the newbies out there who are just now dipping their toes in the pool.
