Sale Price: $19.00 Original Price: $27.00

Before we talk about scholarships, financial aid, or paying for college, families must first understand the system they are stepping into. If you don’t know the problem you are facing, you cannot solve the problem.

Too many parents make college decisions based on assumptions, about cost, value, fairness, and opportunity, without realizing how much information colleges already have about them, how pricing really works, or how academic preparation impacts long-term outcomes.

This e-book pulls back the curtain on the realities of higher education today. It explains what college really costs, how schools decide what families pay, which students truly benefit from a four-year degree, and why certain skills matter far more than others. Most importantly, it highlights what colleges often leave unsaid that can dramatically affect a family’s financial future.

Once you understand these realities, the financial strategies that follow, whether in a separate guide or in our complete e-book (How to Pay for College Without Massive Debt – A Step-By-Step Guide of Graduating College Debt-Free), will make far more sense, and your family will be in a much stronger position to move forward with confidence.

Understand these truths, you will be far better prepared to make smart, confident financial decisions.

*NOTE: The information in this publication is also included in our 218-page e-book (How to Pay for College Without Massive Debt – A Step-By-Step Guide of Graduating College Debt-Free)
