Choosing A College: The Price

When looking at colleges many students and parents are shocked by the rising costs of a college education. Although it is good to look at the cost of tuition and have a sense of available aid to assist you, my suggestion is that before you are accepted ignore the price. 

Why Ignore The Price?
This is the one time in your life when you should ignore the price. I have seen many of my fellow students fall into a trap, where they do not apply to schools where they may have been accepted to, simply because of the cost. THIS IS BAD!!! 

Think about the costs after you receive your acceptance letter and financial aid package

• You never know what the school may offer you. Many schools have scholarships and grants that they do not advertise.
• There are plenty of websites such as Fastweb.com, that list scholarships and grants, GO TO THEM!
• Plus, there are always loans ready and available for your taking

There is no better investment than your education

• PLEASE...don't let your dream school pass you by simply because you think the cost will be too much
