Can A College Funding Coach Assist Me In Finding A College Where My Child Will Reach Their Potential?

If you want to work with a college funding coach, you need one who is completely dedicated to helping you find the best college and locate scholarships for tuition, and who do not have an agenda to push on you. You need someone who has access to cutting-edge tools, systems and one-on-one attention to give you and your college-bound student to give you objective advice.

In order to discover the best fit for a major for your student, they should start with looking into the career path that best fits them. It is only at this point that they can start to pin-point the best schools to consider. After this is dialed in there are more precise areas to look at including: the type of learning offered, overall college experience, content delivery, living arrangements and important areas like these. Moving away from home can also be a huge factor so this along with factors like fraternities, closeness to an airport and off-campus housing come into focus.

Some more topics to consider are just as important like how far away from home the school will be and if there's an airport near by, does the college offer off-campus living and the overall college experience the student will encounter. Because the rising cost of college is causing more people to dig deeper into their retirement accounts to pay for tuition, there is a great need to strategically plan for the financing of the needed tuition to the school that best fits the student.

Can you tell us if there is a way to guarantee that our kid will get into the school they want to go to?

No. There is no way to guaratee that, but they should be able to promise to give your student the tools and strategies that allow them to put their best into the college admissions process. Most doctors can't guarantee that a surgery will always work or that a drug will always work in the ways they want.

They should, however, guarantee your satisfaction. If you don't believe you'received the services you paid for and request a refund in writing, they should refund 100% of your money, because they should be interested in results; if the results don't meet your expectations, they shouldn't meet theirs, and should want to know where they missed the mark so they can improve their program for the families that follow and will refund 100% of your money.
