FINDING MERIT SCHOLARSHIPS MADE EASY
Here's a last chance to make sure you've done everything you could to uncover merit scholarships for your student.

This Merit Scholarship Workshop will give you access to a new tool I've developed to make searching for generous schools much easier!

It's called the College Free Money Finder (get 50% off now, use code HOLIDAY2018).

By entering your student's academic profile, preferences for size and location, and other criteria such as special talents, sports, and specific majors, the College Free Money Finder supplies a list of schools that will be most generous to your student. 

 
In addition, the list of schools includes the specifics of any scholarships each school offers (deadlines, links to applications, gpa/test score criteria, etc). So no more searching on individual college website for this information. 

I'm offering a steep discount of 50% off because you'll be among the first to use the College Free Money Finder and time is running out to find schools your student should apply to. Use coupon code HOLIDAY2018.

In this workshop I'll explain how the tool works, the data used, and other information you should know about merit scholarships.

When: Sunday December 2nd at 8:00pm EST.

Whether we like it or not, the financial aid season is upon us. So to help ease the pain, we recorded our workshop on filling out the CSS Profile. 

Now's the time to make sure your CSS Profile form is submitted correctly. This workshop, led by Christen O'Connor, Associate Director of Financial Aid at Dartmouth College, explains the philoshopy behind why colleges ask the questions they do. As she walks through the form, Christen shares the most common mistakes families make, so you can avoid them.


Do you want to make sure that your son or daughter answers each section accurately and appropriately, and submits the right information to portray his or her strengths?

We recorded our workshop, led by Marisa Meddin (Founder of Talk College To Me) “Conquering the Confusing Common Application: How To Avoid Filling out The Common Application Incorrectly.”

During this workshop Marisa showed exactly what information to include and exclude in each section to ensure your senior submits the strongest possible applications.
