Don't Panic!
While college finance can be scary, it doesn't have to be painful. Here
are some pointers to help you keep your head above water.
-
Start planning early. Know all requirements and deadlines in advance. If
you leave yourself plenty of time you can avoid most mishaps. If
misunderstandings do occur, you'll have time to fix them.
-
Talk to your guidance counselors. Take advantage of the resources they
offer in regards to financial aid application, scholarships, and loan
options.
-
Talk to your parents. Remember that financing your college education is
a group effort.
-
Talk to your friends. Share information and experiences with each other.
Talk to older friends who may have gone through this before.
