Strategic College Planning

It is never too early to start thinking about how you will pay for college for one, two or more children in your family. Many families realize that college is just a year away – and we’re happy to work with them to help them find ways to reduce their college costs. The fact is, planning in advance may be one of the best financial decisions you will ever make and will help enable you to pay for college and still be able to save for retirement and other financial priorities that arise.

Helping Parents & Students with their College Planning Needs

  • Starting early, knowing the rules, and observing the deadlines are the most important factors in obtaining college funding

  • The cost of a 4-year college education can range between $50,000 and $180,000

  • College funding does not typically go to the students who need it most, but to those who know the most about the process

  • Over 50% of all students who start college never finish, most often due to the lack of money

Be Prepared

One financial goal that most parents share is a college education for their children. Yet with college costs increasing at a faster rate than general inflation, saving for college can be a daunting task.

You can, however, pursue this important financial goal by establishing a college fund and taking action today. Starting now, rather than later, can help ensure that you are financially prepared when your child is ready for college.
