The College Funding Coach

We Read it For You! - The Ultimate College Financial Aid Guide
2025-08-05 15:00 - 15:45 (America/New_York) | Zoom – VA, VA
You’re doing everything right in the college application process–researching school fit, crafting the perfect essays, and tracking deadlines. But there’s one major factor that remains opaque: financial aid.
You’re staring at a confusing maze of acronyms, numbers, and fine print that could determine whether your dream education becomes a reality or a financial nightmare.
Here’s a sobering truth: only 40% of students who start college actually graduate in four years, and finances play a crucial role in that statistic. The difference between those who succeed and those who don’t often comes down to one critical factor – truly understanding how to navigate the financial aid system.
We Read It for You is a summer book webinar series for parents who want to better understand the college planning process without having to read every book on the shelf. Each session includes:
• A summary of one relevant college planning book
• Key insights and how they apply to your student’s journey
• A live Q&A with an advisor
• Real-world context from those working with families every day
