| College Admissions Marketing - Tell Us What You Think...
We're doing a survey to understand how parents feel about the marketing their students received from colleges. Whether it's direct mail, texts, emails, or phones we want to know what you think of it all.
The survey is 4 quick questions and the information is collected anonymously. We're compiling the results and will report back to you in a more in-depth article. |

FINDING MERIT SCHOLARSHIPS MADE EASY |
|
|
If you missed our recent "live" Merit Scholarship Workshop, you can still purchase the College Free Money Finder and receive the workshop recording, all at a 50% discount till the end of the year.
The College Free Money Finder is a new tool I developed based on my own frustrations with the college search process. This new tool makes searching for merit scholarships faster and easier (get 50% off now, use code HOLIDAY2018).
By entering your student's academic profile, preferences for size and location, and other criteria such as special talents, sports, and specific majors, the College Free Money Finder supplies a list of schools that will be most generous to your student.
|
|
|
In addition, the list of schools includes the specifics of any scholarships each school offers (deadlines, presence of honor programs, links to applications, gpa/test score criteria, sport and athletic conference, etc). So no more searching on individual college website for this information.
I'm offering a steep discount of 50% off because you'll be among the first to use the College Free Money Finder and time is running out to find schools your student should apply to. Use coupon code HOLIDAY2018.
