About this episode
Episode 222. There is no way to sugarcoat it: getting a college degree is expensive. Between tuition, room and board, and other associated costs, the price of a higher education can be daunting. However, there are ways to make it more affordable. Scholarships, grants, and work-study programs can help lessen the financial burden.
In this episode I talked with Shellee Howard, Founder of College Ready Plan where we discuss some strategies on affording college without taking on large student debt and potentially attend college debt free. We also dive into some of the common mistakes parents and students encounter when applying for colleges. Is college the right option? What is the potential return on your investment if college is an option?
Wouldn't it be nice to have someone hold your hand and walk you through the complicated maze of how to get your student into the best college at the lowest price? Shellee's best selling book, How to Send Your Student to College Without Losing Your Mind or Your Money presents insider strategies and secrets for helping students and families understand how important knowledge and planning are to the success of the complex college planning process. And Shellee is giving you a free copy. Grab a copy now!
