The FAFSA form for students in college in 2024 will be much more complex than FAFSA forms from the past. If you desire to take out student loans, you are required to file the FAFSA. We will discuss the new FAFSA during our free college planning workshop. Please check out workshop dates below.

Introductory, personal session with a college expert to learn about your specific situation. Learn how to prepare your student for college.
If you already work with UFPROS, and would like to schedule a Zoom meeting to discuss your students or financial aid processing.
The Free College Planning Webinar is similar to our LIVE event and is designed to get you caught up on the recent topics that are impacting parents as they're sending kids to college. There will be a discussion about the entrance tests and how some schools are optional, and some schools are still accepting the tests for admissions and scholarships. We will explore the different types of student loans available, warn you about the parent loans that you're about to be offered, and give a basic explanation as to how the financial aid process works. We will also talk about how to pay for college when you are not going to get any Need-based Aid. We recommend that your students attend as well as both parents if possible. The webinar will take a little over 1 hour. After the webinar, you will have the opportunity to sign up for a free consultation with a College Planning expert.

The free virtual consultation is designed to allow us to learn about the specific needs of your family as you enter into the college planning years. This also gives you a chance to learn about our organization and ask those questions about what is going to take place with your child's future education. We will share as much information as we can within the limited time and limited information that you are supplying. This meeting typically takes 90 to 120 minutes, depending upon your situation. If families are divorced or separated, we will provide the opportunity to have two private meetings to keep family topics and finances confidential. At the end of this meeting, we will be able to determine "IF" we can help you with your college planning.

We offer a holistic approach instead of a bit-and-piece approach to the college planning process. This is the mandatory part of the program that connects all of the other services so that you understand how the decisions you and your students are making impact how much you will pay for college. This is the ongoing GPS type process that gets you the correct answers to your questions. We typically start this process in the 10th grade and work with the student until they are done with all programs, including graduate and medical programs. We are here to help as family dynamics, job changes and student situations change. We get you the answers, so you get financial help.
We have programs to guide your student to reach the scores needed to receive scholarships at their favorite colleges. We offer PSAT/National Merit, ACT, SAT and college preparedness courses. This curriculum is designed to take place starting in the fall of the junior year. Please note, that not all colleges offer Scholarships. Merit scholarships based on the Entrance exams and student's GPA are the best way for ALL families to get FREE money for college.
We provide Professional Assessments that help students discover their dream job, the college major needed to do that job, and the perfect college that has the major(s) desired. This process takes some time to develop and is typically completed over a 2-year process. This process can save you thousands of dollars and eliminate the stress caused by changing majors and colleges.
After a failed first semester in college, I joined the USAF. I spent 10 years in the military as a Radar Technician. I learned about life and how to be successful in my studies. I completed my AAS through my military training and then fell in love with higher education. I completed my BS in Electronic Engineering and a Master's degree in Business Administration and Technology Management. My goal is to educate others so that they do not have to experience unnecessary failure as they pursue their educational process.
I failed at my first attempt at college because I did not understand the entrance testing, did not know what I wanted to do for a major and was flat out not ready for college. I see these same characteristics in many students that I visit with every day. In the present day, we also have to add on the stress of funding the education. I want to help students and parents avoid the stress and mystery that accompanies their college readiness. My background as an Engineer is integrated into our college consulting business and services. Over the past 10+ years, I assisted over 3500 families through all steps of the college process.
