FREE COLLEGE PLANNING AND FUNDING INFORMATION SESSIONS
Dear CHEA Parents\, High School and 8th Grade
Students\,
“Students are
changing to cheaper schools and even taking leaves of absence to cope with bad
economy.” Charlotte
Observer December 16\, 2008
College will be here before you know it. Do you want
to be in this position?
A startling fact is that over 50% of the students who start
college never finish due to lack of funding\, change in majors and change in
colleges. Our College Graduate Program will assist your family avoid this
by explaining the common mistakes and pitfalls\, by identifying deadlines you
must observe and ways to turn the process in your favor. We offer proven methods that have been developed
through years of research and hands on experience.
“...it (FAFSA Form)
has become so intimidating – with more than 100 questions... scares off
families...preventi ng some from going to college.” ...“the
form does a poor job of assessing financial worth.” President Obama’s
secretary of education states\, “you basically have to have a Ph.D. to
figure that thing out.” Charlotte
Observer February 21\, 2009
Wouldn’t it be great if all the information and
answers were available in one comprehensive\, easy to use plan?
Great news! They are! College Funding Solutions
understands that college planning and funding can often be a stressful time for
families like yours. We have guided over 18\,000 students and parents
through the sometimes difficult process.
The best news – our College Graduate Program gives
answers from your perspective\, not the college’s\, the internet or
some biased third party.
The first question you may ask is “When do I begin
planning?” The answer is NOW! College funding is awarded on a
first come first served basis.
College Funding Solutions invites you to attend a FREE
information sessions to discuss\;
-
Why
starting now is so important
-
How to effectively explore majors\, colleges and
career options
-
