Our goal is to eliminate the obstacles that prevent students from receiving the best possible college education.

We focus on these primary areas...

GETTING IN - Career Planning and School Selection

LOWERING THE COSTS - Financial Aid, Scholarships and Grants

PAYING FOR IT - Proven Financial Planning Concepts

The initial concern for most parents is "GETTING IN". Only to find out that paying the bill is just as, if not, more important. In fact, the way you handle paying the tuition bill, can cause long term detrimental damage to your family's finances down the road. At Parros College Planning we believe that getting your child into the right school and on the right career path are equally as important as lowering the overall costs and developing a proven financial plan to pay for it.

GETTING IN - Career Guidance, College Selection, & Admissions

By doing proper preliminary work, you can minimize the chances of being in college for more than four years. It is costly when the wrong major, wrong school, or a college where you "just don't fit" are chosen. Similar to visiting the Doctor, we will do some Academic Diagnostics to see where you are today and help you implement a plan to get you where you need to be in the future. Our program includes:

Evaluation of grades, class standing & standardized test scores.
Personality assessments designed by one of the leading Industrial Psychologists in the country which will help you identify your possible Career interests, Majors and Colleges.
Detailed profiles of Colleges which you are interested in.
A review of your student resume of community service, leadership & other extra curricular activities.
Once potential colleges have been identified, positioning your student becomes the primary focus. Our program includes:

How to position the Student to get onto the College's Radar.
Task / Project Tracking for Various Deadlines. There are Deadlines for Standardized Tests, Applications, and Financial Aid & Housing. Each college may have several different application deadlines as well as Deadlines for Priority Financial Aid & Priority Housing.
Review admission applications and the student resume.
Guidance with FAFSA, CSS Profile and any college specific Financial Aid forms.
Evaluation of Financial Aid Packages, Appeal the Financial Award as appropriate and with the student & parent evaluate the Final College Choice.
