Our Promise to You – The Road Map

1.    Develop a customized “Student Profile Report” that is approximately 50 to 80 pages filled with information regarding your eligibility for financial aid. It will also contain detailed information about colleges, universities, ACT/SAT board exams, AP/CLEP courses, etc.         

2.   Analyze your ability to qualify for college funding and to what extent by computing your Expected Family Contribution for both the Federal and complicated Institutional Methodology. 

3.   Assume annual responsibility for the completion of the complicated FAFSA form. 

4.   Provide a customized “College Search” that evaluates colleges you have specified and pinpoint others that offer the curriculum that fits your child’s career goal and a variety of other specified criteria. The schools chosen by our team are generally those schools that historically have offered a combination of high monetary awards and strong educational values. 

5.   Did you know that you can negotiate your financial aid package?
We will provide you with access to our “Negotiations Team.” We assist in helping you obtain more financial aid with colleges and universities that offer you unexpectedly low funding.  We evaluate your financial aid package(s) and determine if the correct amount of financial aid is being provided.  In the event that the package is being under awarded or mis-awarded, we either contact the financial aid officers on your behalf or create letter(s) for you to send to the schools requesting additional financial aid. 

6.    Provide you with SAT/ACT practice study guide along with software produced by the Kaplan Learning Centers and guaranteed to improve test scores.   

7.   Help make your first choice of schools the best choice by providing access to a computer driven, comprehensive college and career planning system.  This online personality profile and aptitude test assists your student in choosing a major that your student should not only enjoy, but also excel in academically. 

8.   Inform your family about the top companies to obtain student loans that currently have the best interest rates and excellent customer service. 

9.   Provide a 1-hour one-on-one consultation with a “Senior College Counselor” to discuss your Student Profile Report, FAFSA and/or CSS Profile filing, and the financial aid process.    

10.  Provide you with a toll-free customer service number to call with any questions or any issues you may wish to discuss.
