Every April I receive numerous calls and desperate emails from parents of seniors. Only now, when they have the financial aid offers in their hands, do they realise that COLLEGE COSTS MONEY!
Astounding! With many, many schools in the $50,000 and up annual price range, how did these parents miss this little fact?
I am often asked when should we start planning for college. You should start planning for college as soon as the baby is born, maybe even as soon as the pregnancy test shows you the telltale red line! Families with young children often do not have much money. They do, however, have a great deal of time. Time is a beautiful thing to have when you are growing a pile of money! I can help young families put together a savings plan which is very effective and takes into account the financial aid rules so they can maximise their access to that pool of funds as well.
Don't be one of those families who only call a college planner when it is too late. Call today, when your child is young!
