If yours and your child’s college application goals are to have them accepted to a right-fit college/university AND to receive merit money, this class will provide guidance. The instructor will share what research and experience has taught her about how college admissions plays out in real life, and how to talk about college financing with your child. She will also provide great resources to help you to create a college list with your child, including up to date stats from the colleges themselves. Limited to 30.
