Parents of students who plan to attend any college or university will want to attend this FREE WORKSHOP.  Don’t make the mistake of thinking it is too early to begin. The time is NOW! 


Jim Femia, a Certified College Planning Specialist (CCPS) and a member of the National Institute of Certified College Planners (NICCP) will present a 60 minute workshop which will cover the following topics: 



  • How families of ALL income levels are receiving financial aid.

  • Why some families incorrectly assume they could never qualify for aid.

  • Which colleges give you the best financial aid packages…More gift aid and fewer loans.

  • Learn how to avoid costly mistakes on the FAFSA and CSS Profile

  • How some parents are sending their student to a private university for less than a state school.

  • How students can position themselves to be the best candidate and receive more FREE money and less loans. 

  • Please leave your checkbooks at home. There is nothing to be sold or even offered for sale at this workshop.  Both parents and students will benefit from this discussion.
