The bulk of college financial aid awards are starting to arrive now to students that will be attending college in the 2020-21 year. If you filled out the FAFSA and CSS Profile you might have interpreted the question incorrectly not receiving all the aid possible. Immediately you should be asking yourself are these award(s) fair for my college student? The answer is unless you are awarded 100% of the total college cost you wouldn’t know. 

The reality is that many families will simply take what is originally offered therefore will spend more for college than they need to, sometimes into the thousands of dollars more.

If you are reading this you must have questions and be looking for the best answers.  Just like a good tax accountant it pays to have a professional who knows how to accurately interpret the questions and provide the best answer based on your situation to receive more financial aid.
