Colleges Are Businesses - They Negotiate!

Why You Shouldn't Expect A Great Offer

Because colleges want your money, it's brain-dead logical that you will NOT always get their "highest and best" offer, notwithstanding empty promises and assurances on their websites about making college affordable for everyone and other baloney!

Can't the financial aid office help you?

Um...yeah. Let's think this one through.

Asking an employee of a business, "Hey, pal, how can I get more money from your boss?" may not result in the helpful information you want. (Would you call the IRS to ask about any new "hot" deductions this year?)

I'm sure you'll agree that giving out this info wouldn't be the best career move for the financial aid officer!

Look, you can get what you want, and need...

...if you learn how to play "The Game!"

Just One Weekly Issue Can Make the Unaffordable Tuition Bill Something You Actually LOOK FORWARD to Receiving!

Although I've done my darndest to make each newsletter issue as user-friendly and actionable as possible, the truth is that you need only one "nugget" to improve an offer by thousands, or perhaps tens of thousands, of dollars.

I'm genuinely excited for you to dive into College Money Weekly, because I believe the pandemic, test-optional policies, the rise of the Common Application and the record numbers of high school graduates have created the perfect storm...

...perhaps the greatest opportunity ever to negotiate with colleges, who are scrambling around like never before, competing with EACH OTHER, for your student's enrollment!
