This Fall's FAFSApocalypse
At 7:31 am I was on a morning news show that Pearl and I couldn't figure out how to watch, discussing the pending changes in financial aid, including the elimination of the "sibling discount."
As usual, I didn't have enough time to delve into all of the items I felt were important, possibly because the producers didn't want to put their audience to sleep.
So I decided to throw together a last minute, quickie webinar on the new rules of financial aid and what they mean for you, tomorrow night, to walk you through what you need to know if you're applying for financial aid for the upcoming year and/or beyond.
Here's some of what's on tap for tomorrow night:
*Rules changes for families with more than one child in college
*Rules changes for business owners
*Rules changes for divorced families
*Rules changes for how contributions from grandparents or others are treated in the financial aid formulas
*Changes in the timing of when you file
*The effect of the changes on students who apply Early Decision and Early Action
*More -- including your questions, live in chat
Here's where to sign up for this one-time, live event:
Hope you can make it, I don't think we're going to record it.
