- Failure to believe that you qualify for financial aid.
Most parents are under the misconception they would not be eligible for financial aid if the family income is over $90,000. This is usually not the case. - Failure to understand the strategies of applying to colleges.
- Failure to know which form(s) and when. Timing is everything! Missed forms and deadlines will deny you aid! Do NOT wait for college acceptance!
- Failure to know “exactly” what to do in a gridlock and time-sensitive system.
