I’m doing my last seminar of 2011 for our Collegewise senior families today—“Financial Aid and Scholarships.” I’ll be talking about how they can manage the process, what they can do now to prepare to apply for aid in January, and answering common questions like, “Can applying for aid hurt my student’s chances of admission?” I always enjoy this topic because I think it’s Collegewise at our best—taking something unnecessarily complicated and intimidating, and making it simple and accessible.
If you'd like to see it, too, you can download our “Financial Aid and Scholarships” video. It's the same seminar, filmed in front of our Collegewise families back in August, and it's available as a streaming download for $12.99.
And if you’re already in our full senior program in any of our Collegewise offices, you can watch it for free. Just email your Collegewise counselor for instructions on how to access it.
