2024 brings significant college planning changes. Join us to learn new strategies for applying to college and maximizing scholarships.

This past year has resulted in some of the most significant changes to the college planning process in decades.

Admission trends have changed around how colleges admit students
Schools have made ACT/SAT optional, but not necessarily when they award scholarships, and some colleges are going back to requiring standardized tests
The number of schools on the “more selective” list continues to grow
Substantial changes to the FAFSA and financial aid may make college more expensive
Join us as we partner with national college expert Heidi King to learn how these changes may impact your family and new strategies to consider to give your student the best opportunity to be admitted and maximize scholarships and financial aid.

If you parent a high school student in grades 9-11, this is essential info you will want to take advantage of.
