Aside from your home, sending your child to college may be the single biggest financial expenditure of your life. Not to mention, choosing an appropriate school will probably be the last significant decision you make together. Certainly, the challenges involved in these decisions will have lasting impacts and the stress of choosing the perfect college seems almost unfair
From a child's perspective, college might sometimes look like the next automatic step in the assembly line of education they started at age 5 or 6. Not realizing that you are the Wizard behind the curtain, they might imagine that it all occurs naturally with little or no effort involved. As you've known from the moment you first sent your child off to school, college is anything but effortless. Somehow the idea of college is transformed from a tiny voice inside your head in the delivery room into the Sword of Damocles as they approach the SATs.
How to get the most out of the tens of thousands of dollars you will spend and how to make sure your child gets the most out of their four years in school are the $64,000 questions. The decisions you and your child make over the next year or two will significantly impact both. That is where The College Store comes in.
We offer a variety of tools and resources to help you find and evaluate the opportunities and avenues available to you. We then help you make the choices and decisions along the way that will ensure that you have given your child the best chance possible to meet and exceed both of your expectations.
