Few things are worse for a parent than finding out that they will be unable to send their child to the school that they worked diligently to get accepted to. All those hours spent studying for exams and writing essays can feel wasted when the financial aid award is insufficient. This is a reality for many families. “Too rich for financial aid, too poor for college” is the phrase to describe this all-too-common situation. When this happens, the go-to response seems to be taking on debt that has the potential to burden the student for a lifetime—or jeopardize the parents’ retirement plan!
Contrary to what most people think, financial aid is available even to families with high incomes. As financial professionals and college planners, we strive to help families receive the financial help they deserve by utilizing a combination of little-known strategies. Even if you think you don’t (or won’t) qualify for financial aid, you can still greatly benefit from our planning services. In the end, our process may not only save you undue stress, but also assist in saving your retirement nest egg.
How powerful would it be to be able to make an informed decision when it comes to picking a college?
The Financial Planning Center can provide your student with detailed reports on up to 8 schools that will include their Expected Family Contribution (EFC), an estimate on what their financial aid package will consist of, and specific information pertaining to the student data unique to each school. We will also provide advice to parents on ways to reduce their expected family contribution and raise the amount of financial aid their children can be entitled to.
Our primary goal is to help families pay for college without destroying their retirement.
Enrolling in college can be affordable for almost any family!
Contact FPC today to see if you are a good fit for our program and let the professionals help your family now so you can feel great about the future!
