(written by Val, College Counselor at the Center for College Planning)

Hi everyone,

Last week I wrote a blog about reviewing your financial aid award packages from your various colleges and gave you some tips to consider when doing that.  I’m not sure where all of you are with your decision-making, but I have spoken with some seniors that are still weighing their options and doing some necessary research before that all important May 1 deadline. 

I found this article by U.S. News & World Report that may help you better evaluate your offers for financial aid.  The Center for College Planning is also offering an “Understanding the Award Letter” workshop in their Concord office on Tuesday, April 20 at 5 p.m.  If you would like to register to attend this workshop, please visit our website and register today!

Choose well,
Val
