Introducing our newest tool!
The name might not be a showstopper, but what it does surely is. Our COMPARE COLLEGE OFFERS tool can help you know which number to compare across all the offers and then see what other students at the same school were offered!
We just started sharing this tool last week and already 250 users have shared their financial aid offers at over 300 schools!
Try it here (it’s FREE!), and you can thank us later. |

| Know How To Appeal The Right Way... |
|
|
Last Thursday I did a Facebook Live with Jay London on mistakes to avoid when appealing financial aid.
Here were some of the comments: |

|
| Because of all the great feedback, we're doing this Facebook Live again on Wednesday, 3/20 at 2pm EST.
In this intimate workshop, Jay will show you how to: - research whether or not your student received the best offer.
- improve the attractiveness of your student in the eyes of the college.
- figure out if there are options for improving your student's offer besides just more aid (hint - what about making sure the merit scholarship increases at the same rate as tuition hikes??!!).

AND THERE'S MORE! A BONUS JAY ADDED...
On last week's Facebook Live, Jay offered (which he hadn't told me about) that he will personally review and provide feedback on financial aid appeal letters for everyone who attends the workshop.
|
|
|
So in addition to learning his secrets, he's willing to personally review your financial aid appeal letter.
I don't have a high school senior this year, but in two years I will and I'm going to make sure Jay does his workshop then too!
So... - Watch the recording of last week's Facebook Live here
OR- Watch Jay's upcoming Facebook Live here, tomorrow (3/20) at 2pm EST
AND - Sign up for his workshop here for 3/21 at 8:30pm EST.
