123College.com is the oldest and largest nationwide
college planning company. Since 1994, we have been your source for college
planning information. We assist your student for all undergraduate years with:
board exam test preparation, choosing a major, choosing a college or university,
financial aid negotiations, FAFSA / CSS Profile filing, and maximize your
financial aid eligibility to get the most grants and scholarships.
Why are Guidance Counselors and Financial Aid Officers Not Enough?
123 College fills the gaps where your guidance counselors and financial aid
officers can’t possibly help. Why, because they are not licensed financial
professionals who understand the financial aid system through and through.
Our allegiance is with your family. Financial aid officers work for the schools.
Their job is to get as much money for their school as possible. Colleges and
universities are businesses. Sitting down with a financial aid officer to
complete your FAFSA or CSS Profile is exactly like going to the local IRS office
to complete your income tax returns. They might help you complete the forms.
The chances of you being in the best situation possible are slim to none.
The vast majority of high school guidance counselors usually assist with:
certain aspects of admissions, obtaining general information about schools, and
other minor details such as filing deadlines or board exam testing dates. They are
not the appropriate people to assist with matters pertaining to financial aid.
Especially when it comes to FAFSA/CSS Profile filings. The guidance counselor will
likely not understand how every line on the forms affects how much you’re expected to
pay in college costs. Let us just say you happen to have a one in a thousand
financial savvy guidance counselor who does understand the forms. The person still
likely won’t be able to help you. This is because the guidance counselor is not a
licensed financial professional who understands investments. Above all, the
guidance counselor will not be available during the college years.
Why Your Financial Advisor May be Hazardous to Your Wealth
It is not a good idea to see your financial advisor about college planning unless
your advisor understands every line on the FAFSA and CSS Profile forms. The
financial advisor can’t possibly put you in the proper investments without such
expertise. 123 College spends hundreds of thousands of dollars obtaining and
updating the data necessary for you to make sound college planning decisions.
Please make sure any financial professional can clearly explain each line of the
FAFSA or CSS Profile before taking any of their college planning advice.
Why 123 College?
123 College works closely with all of our senior counselors to make sure you are
getting the best advice for your family. We produce a 75 to 90 page Student Profile
Report that clearly explains how all of your income and assets effect how much you
are expected to pay for college. We do all of this before your student even sends in
an application to a school. Would you like to know exactly how much the colleges
and universities are going to cost you before you apply? Would you like to know how
to position to assets to keep from spending your retirement dollars?
