Sometimes parents need just as much help as their children when it comes to planning for college. In order to meet these needs, we compiled a collection of college planning resources that parents can turn to for information. Some of the resources parents have found most useful are:
- Fastweb.com
- College Planning Guide for Parents and Students
- Scholarships for Women
- SAT and ACT Test Prep Guides
- College Savings Guide
- Undergraduate Application Guide
- MyAcceptanceRate.com
- Guide to Paying for College - Financial Aid, Scholarships, Savings, & Student Loans
- Studentloans.net/scholarships
- Familyeducationfair.com
- Thecollegeexpo.org
- campusreel.org - student-made videos of tons of college campuses
Financial aid begins with the FAFSA, yet in 2017 an estimated 43% of high school graduates neglected to submit theirs, resulting in 2 billion dollars in Pell Grants going unclaimed. No student can afford to miss out on financial aid opportunities, which is why we created our guide to the FAFSA.
