SHOWING FAMILIES AND STUDENTS A SMARTER WAY TO PLAN AND PAY FOR COLLEGE There are many strategies, tools and resources to help families address the rising costs for higher education. Proper college planning requires much more than simply contributing to a 529 education fund - saving FOR college. Proper college planning is both an art and a science, balancing the art of helping the student identify and get accepted into the right schools, with the science of funding his/her college costs without sacrificing other key elements of the family's overall financial future - saving ON college. We pride ourselves on helping students prepare for the time before, during and after college. By making sure the student is properly prepared for all three phases, families can save ten of thousands of dollars and many hours of wasted time while also protecting resources for upcoming students as well as the parent’s retirement. We are passionate about improving the college outcomes for our families by developing innovative solutions that help parents and students reconsider how to best achieve their long-term educational and retirement goals. It all starts with having a comprehensive coordinated college plan in place. With a clear focus on putting the interests of students and families first, we provide an objective analysis that balances both student positioning and financial/retirement concerns for the parents. When performing our analysis and providing recommendations we are free to evaluate and choose the strategies that best address each family's unique challenges.
