Due to the pandemic, the anxiety level in many households is so thick that it’s difficult for teens to wade through...as they move from the sofa to the computer and back to the sofa again.

20/20 on the College Admissions Process
In our never ending search for data that can be helpful for parents and students, we asked families of the class of 2019 from our Paying For College 101 Facebook group, “Did You Get What You Expected?”
The survey netted responses from over 550 families and provided us with a wealth of information.
Now, we are asking the same question of the families of the class of 2020.
Would you please fill out our survey and pay it forward to the next graduating class?
