Don’t Let the Forms Trick You Out of Funds

 Regardless of your financial need, consider this:

By applying for financial aid,
you’re asking three of the biggest institutions
in our country
to part with their money.

For free, at low interest rates, or even with deferred interest.

Your federal government, your state government, and your college of choice would all prefer to keep as much money as they can, right? So in the hope of giving less to you, they’ve created an incredibly complex system that punishes you for errors, omissions, and inconsistencies between forms.

70%-90% of aid forms submitted by families like yours contained issues that delayed processing by 4-6 weeks. And in the “first come, first serve” world of college financial aid, those issues cost families thousands of dollars.

You’ll be pleased to know that we’re intimately familiar with the application process. Not only that, but we also help you negotiate with your college of choice for a better financial aid package. (Did you know you could do that? You can!)

We’ll ensure your consistent responses across the board for fastest processing and the best financial aid package possible for:

  • Your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
  • Your Private College Aid Forms (CSS Financial Aid PROFILE®)
  • Any additional forms required by individual schools
  • Your Student Aid Report (SAR)
  • Your Stafford Loan & PLUS Loan applications

We’ll also analyze and evaluate financial aid award letters from up to three schools, and provide proven negotiation letters to reduce or eliminate the difference between your Expected Financial Contribution (EFC) and the school’s first financial aid award offer.

Protection from even the simplest mistakes in your financial aid forms will keep you from being overlooked for grants, scholarships, or low-interest/deferred-interest loans.

Protection from these common mistakes will also keep you from draining your home equity, IRAs, and savings accounts to pay for college.

Even if you’re late to the financial aid game, we’ll still find ways to help. Just contact us.
