So you’re a family with a college bound student. Your student has taken all of the right classes, has a strong GPA and ACT/SAT score, and is involved in a number of activities and services at school. The opportunities at the next level are limitless and approaching fast. Now the time is approaching to do the work of exploring schools, seeking out scholarships, and financial planning. That’s a lot to navigate alone, and the decisions will certainly be impactful on your student’s future. The good news is there are a number of resources out there to help you on this journey, and none better than a College Planning Specialist. In fact, the Quad Cities has the only Certified College Planning Specialist (CCPS) in Iowa right in our community (I’ve added the contact info for Huiskamp Collins Educational Planning below).
So what can you expect if you choose to utilize a CCPS?
Strategic planning for paying for college. Help finding merit scholarships for those who don’t qualify for need based awards. Introduction to schools outside of your initial scope that fit your student’s profile. Financial planning for parents in the early stages who want to position their family financially to pay for college in the future. Learn the right questions to ask to open up a wider pool of college options.
