FAFSA®
Free Application for Federal Student Aid
This form is required by all colleges to apply for federal and state aid. Some colleges will also use it to determine eligibility for institutional aid.
Please note: The U.S. Department of Education requires me to inform you that you can choose to complete the FAFSA® on your own free of charge.
College Board CSS/Financial Aid PROFILE®
Many private colleges require this 14+ page form to award institutional need-based aid. It collects more data than the FAFSA® because private colleges require additional information to award their institutional need-based funds.
Supplemental Educational Loans
Many students and parents have to borrow supplemental loans to help pay for college but deciding which lender to use can be overwhelming. I have done the research so that you don’t have to spend hours and hours analyzing the details of each loan. Interest rates (variable and fixed), repayment incentives, and co-signer requirements are just a few of the details to weigh when choosing a private loan. E-mail me for more information.
