Little-Known Secrets of Paying for College - New Date
Dear Maumelle Middle School Parents,
We have been working hard to provide college resources for your family. We are excited to announce that Maumelle Middle School is hosting the College Funding Coach via Zoom on April 6th @ 7 PM. This event is for any family wanting to learn how to pay for college (Preschool - High School).
"On average, tuition tends to increase about 8% per year. An 8% college inflation rate means that the cost of college doubles about every nine years https://finaid.org/savings/tuition-inflation/. Planning for these expenses has become essential. Some families have children attending college next year, and others have years to plan, but the fears of tackling these monumental and rising costs are the same. The College Funding Coach® is here to help families figure out HOW to pay for it and still retire one day.
You'll discover strategies that may enable you to qualify for financial aid, sources for scholarships, and strategies for maximizing your wealth and minimizing your tax exposure, giving you greater cash flow for funding a college education. Please join Maumelle Middle School via ZOOM webinar on April 6th @ 7 PM. This is information you can't afford to miss! To receive your link, please Register Here. Please take a look around our website The College Funding Coach® for helpful resources and information.
This is a free educational webinar. Please register by clicking HERE or on the flyer attached to this email.
