| It Isnât Autumn Without Application Frenzy

| | The above post was from a member of our Paying For College 101 group from just the other day.
I get it!
If this is your first child going through the college admissions process, it can feel daunting. And even if it's your 2nd or 3rd child (like me), it sill feels overwhelming.
So this year I'm trying something new. I've teamed up with some experts to give anyone who needs it, some last minute support and guidance.
Join us for a special three-week program where we will cover critical topics to ensure you and your student avoid costly mistakes and minimize the confusion that can often accompany this process.
If you've read my newsletters for a while and been a member of my Facebook community, you know I try to offer products and services that are reasonable and affordable.
This series of three workshops is only $59!
