College & Career

All Grades:
A key suggestion from the College Finance Guy, Tim Lenahan, was to click on the Financial Aid Calculator for every school your child may be interested in attending.  You can Google this for every college and plug in your details. Additionally, schools are required to list what average salaries are by major. Fill out the FAFSA on October 1 if your child is a senior.  This helps with merit and scholarship opportunities.
