Senior are beginning to hear back from colleges. I hope you hear wonderful news about acceptances and scholarships.

After the thrill of hearing about admission and scholarships, suddenly the reality of finances comes crashing down on parents.  Even with a scholarship, how can you pay for college?

It’s important to remain calm, even though you have heard one an initial message about scholarships.  Because the truth is that scholarships come in waves. The first wave of scholarships was based on his SAT scores.  The next wave of scholarships will be based on the FAFSA on January 1, tied to your financial “need.”  Sometimes there is also a third wave of scholarships. That wave will be based on additional factors other than scholastic achievement or financial need.  It could be related to a specific talent (football) or interest (engineering major) or skill (piano.)

You want to be perfectly positioned to ride all three waves.
