With the cost of just one year of college running between $17,000 and $50,000 a year, families are struggling with paying for college. Felicia Gopaul, of College Funding Resource will be presenting a seminar to parents attending the Free Financial Planning Clinic in Washington, DC put on by the CFP Board. On Saturday, September 13, 2008 at the Grand Hyatt Washington, she will be sharing the latest information parents can use to reduce the cost of college.
“Given the importance and expense of a college education,” states Gopaul, “to both parents and students, it is essential that parents stay informed on the issues that can save them significant amounts of money.”
Some of the topics Ms. Gopaul is looking forward to sharing with the parents are:
• The three questions to ask your child – before you pay for their college education.
• What every parent needs to know BEFORE they apply for financial aid?
• Discovering why not all schools are good financial partners.
• How the wrong school can cost parent’s thousands more for college!
• How it can be cheaper to send your child to an expensive private university for less than a state school!
• What’s new in college loans?
Felicia Gopaul has been working with parents for 15 years helping them afford the colleges that admit their children. She is a knowledgeable guest and will share her specialized experience and knowledge with your audience. Available for interviews, Felicia welcomes questions from listeners and readers alike.
