Emotional Balance Sheet with Paul Fenner

The College Planning Process Part 2: Finding the Best Fit for Your Kid(s)


Listen Later

Do you know the right questions you should be asking schools for how they will be teaching your kids to learn at their institutions?  Or how the skills they may learn will translate into the working world?

In part 2 of the college planning process, we build off part 1, where I spoke about the cruel optimism we face as parents when balancing all the financial and lifestyle challenges facing us.  In this episode, we focus on how to find a college or university that best fits your kids.  Our need to be having conversations early with our kids about college and the blunt questions we should be asking them.

Additionally, we talk about the transfer process and how it could or could not be a good option for your kids.  And, we set realistic expectations with it comes to obtaining an athletic scholarship to pay for undergraduate education.

Recall that this three-part series focused on the college planning process is not just about saving, financial aid, or loans. Instead, the college process that I am building at TAMMA is a comprehensive look at how to plan, have conversations with your kids, and the right questions to ask students and college administrators, and professors.

I hope that you enjoy part two of our college planning process series.
