Navigating the New System of College Pricing and Financial Aid
Insights and actions to prepare for the financial aid process and increase your eligibility.
For 10th Grade Families
Given the steady increase in college costs, families enter high school with questions about how to make college affordable. Rising sticker prices (and sticker shock) have required colleges to transform how they provide financial assistance. Today’s more expansive system of financial aid looks very different than 20 years ago, providing opportunities for all families to reduce the price they pay for college.
Navigating the ways colleges give out money – federal and state aid, institutional grants, and merit scholarships – can be overwhelming. With an early and clear understanding of how the system works, you can find your paths to financial assistance and affordable college costs.
This workshop provides answers to fundamental questions families have, including…
Will we be eligible for need-based financial aid, or should we focus on merit scholarships?
What are the different college financial aid policies today, and how do they work for us?
What can we be doing now to prepare for the cost of college?
Join this workshop for an expert overview of today’s financial aid system and how need-based and merit-based aid policies work. You’ll receive tools to understand your eligibility, options for financial aid, and actions you can take today to be ready.
