One thing is for certain though, regardless of the state of our economy, the demand for higher education will always be there. And unless you attend a local community college, you can expect to have a large bill to pay.

Below is a list of the top colleges for financial aid. Even though the sticker price on most of these colleges will be over $60,000 for the 2015-2016 school year, if your family is determined to have financial need, many will meet that need 100%.

If your student will be a junior or senior in high school this fall, you should determine your financial need and begin planning your ‘bottom line’ cost of college NOW! Give us a call! We can help sort all this out!
