Why do you need help with your child's college planning?

Choosing a college is probably the single most important and expensive decision you will make with your children. Every parent wants their children to be happy in college, as the experience that essentially transitions them to adulthood.  At the same time, you need to make the best use of your college dollars, as the average family will spend over $500 - $1,500 per week, for at least four years, to send a child to college.  

The good news is that there now exists an unprecedented wealth of information available in the form of websites, guidebooks and well-meaning friends. Unfortunately, that is also the bad news, as there are nearly 4,000 four-year colleges and universities out there for your student to consider.  Enlisting professional assistance to help create options for your child's best college match and to facilitate the application process can make a positive difference in your child's college search, application and admission.
