Back to school means College Nights, info sessions, and sugar-coated admissions advice. Here’s what they won’t tell you… and what families actually need to hear.

In this episode of College Coffee Talk, Andy and Pearl Lockwood pull back the curtain on what really matters in the college admissions and financial aid process. These are the uncomfortable facts your high school probably won’t cover at its “College Night.”

Topics include:
 ✔ What test-optional really means behind the scenes
 ✔ The problem with high school GPA inflation
 ✔ Why FAFSA and financial aid advice is often misleading
 ✔ How counselors are unintentionally steering families wrong
