369 - How To Find the Best College Fit for Your Child, That You Can Afford! - With College Admissions Counselor Mark Stucker

  • Summary

  • How in the world will you help your child find the best college for them, let alone pay for it? Don’t want your kid or family burdened with debt? Worried that you earn too much money for them to get federal aid, but not enough to pay for their schooling? You’re also probably overwhelmed because when do you have time to figure this all out!? I want to help you! Today, I interviewed college admissions counselor Mark Stucker about his formula for matching students to colleges using 5 key areas – academic match, social match, emotional match, career match, and financial match. Then in part 2 of the series he’ll go deeper into how college admissions decide on who to accept each year, what exactly they're looking for, and how to help your student get into their dream school. Part 3 dishes on how the Net Price Calculator and MyinTuition can be used to anticipate the overall cost of 4 years of undergrad, plus many other nuggets of advice that you wished you knew when you went to college back in the day!
