"An Investment in Knowledge Pays the Best Interest"
Our goal is to to make the college planning experience for students and their parents a memorable one. We help the students find the best college or university that meets their specific criteria while saving mom and dad's pocket book.
1. Develop a customized “Student Profile Report” that is approximately 50 to 80 pages filled with information regarding your eligibility for financial aid. It will also contain detailed information about colleges, universities, ACT/SAT board exams, AP/CLEP courses, etc.
2. Analyze your ability to qualify for college funding and to what extent by computing your Expected Family Contribution for both the Federal and complicated Institutional Methodology.
3. Assume annual responsibility for the completion of the complicated FAFSA form. We will also file the C.S.S. Profile required by more prestigious colleges and universities.
4. Provide a customized “College Search” that evaluates colleges you have specified and pinpoint others that offer the curriculum that fits your child’s career goal and a variety of other specified criteria. The schools chosen by 123College.com are generally those schools that historically have offered a combination of high monetary awards and strong educational values.
5. Gain access to the 123College.com “Negotiations Team.” We assist in helping you obtain more financial aid with colleges and universities that offer you unexpectedly low funding. We evaluate your financial aid package(s) and determine if the correct amount of financial aid is being provided. In the event that the package is being under awarded or mis-awarded, we either contact the financial aid officers on your behalf or create letter(s) for you to send to the schools requesting additional financial aid.
6. Provide you with SAT/ACT practice study guide along with software produced by the Kaplan Learning Centers and guaranteed to improve test scores.
7. Provide access to a computer driven, comprehensive college and career planning system. This online personality profile and aptitude test assists your student in choosing a major that your student should not only enjoy, but also excel in academically.
