  • Graduation Gift Guide

    LINK TO ARTICLE: https://nodebtcollege.substack.com/publish/post/144203681?back=%2Fpublish%2Fposts%2Fscheduled

    Congratulations to the Class of 2024, both the students and parents and guardians! Your hard work has paid off, and now you’re on to the next chapter of your life. Here are some gift ideas to help you recognize the graduate in your life.

    Gift Cards
    One of the most practical gifts you can give a grad is a gift card, especially these fun graduation-themed gift cards from Amazon. No matter how well students and parents plan for college and dorm life, they will always find something that they forgot to bring to college. An Amazon gift card makes it quick and easy to make those last-minute purchases. And, if you combine this with an Amazon Prime Student Membership, your student will get even more great benefits!

    Pro Tip: Order your dorm and college essentials, like bedding, shower caddies, laundry bags, and a first aid kit on Amazon and have them shipped directly to college, rather than lugging them to campus yourself.

    Go to Class!
    The gift book, Go to Class: How to Succeed at College by Karen Dentler gives practical advice for succeeding in college. Written by an expert with over 20 years in higher education, these bite-sized bits of advice will ensure that your grad thrives in college and beyond!
    Commemorate Their Achievements
    Whether it’s a custom diploma frame, a grad cap shadow box, a senior year photo frame, a varsity letter frame, or some other personalized gift to celebrate your grad’s achievements, Church Hill Classics has what you’re looking for. Plus, my readers can take $15 off $100+ orders by using promo code Dave15 at checkout!

    I ordered a diploma frame for my son, who is graduating college this year, and we couldn’t be happier with how they turned out!


     
    A Gift For Mom & Dad

    When our kids turn 18, we lose the ability to legally help them in emergency situations unless the proper paperwork is in place. That is why I recommend Mama Bear Legal Forms Young Adult Power of Attorney. Be sure to read my recent article on why I’m so thankful that we have a Young Adult POA in place.

    With the Power of Attorney documents, you can:

    + Make health care decisions if your student is incapacitated

    + Avoid court-appointed guardians

    + Gain access to medical records in case of an emergency

    + Interact with landlords and insurance companies

    You can use my discount code, ScholarshipCoach,  to take 20% off the total price at Mama Bear Legal Forms.

  • Help Your Teen Succeed: Special Enrollment Open for Launch Career Clarity! - Episode 787

    I’m thrilled to share that a SPECIAL enrollment is now open for Lisa Marker-Robbins’ signature program, Launch Career Clarity. This incredible program is based on Lisa's work with over 3,700 individuals and has been meticulously designed to help your teen navigate college major and career selection with confidence and clarity.

    Why Launch Career Clarity?

    Forbes has cited Lisa’s framework as a crucial step to increasing the return on your college investment, which is sure to be significant. 

    Here’s what Kristy Miller had to say about her son’s transformation:

    “I was overwhelmed because my son had a casual attitude and no direction. The Launch course resources and Lisa’s encouragement re-focused him. He’s still casual but with a confirmed & confident direction. Our stress going into senior year was far less.”

    The Launch course provides everything you need to develop a strategic plan that will help your child find success and happiness.

    If you’ve been waiting for the right time to invest in your teen’s future, this is it!

    During Launch Career Clarity, your teen will:

    Go from feeling overwhelmed and confused to motivated and clear.

  • Gain the confidence to make informed decisions about their future college major and career.

  • Be ready to launch into adulthood without moving back home.

    Is Launch Career Clarity Right for You?

    Only consider enrolling if you can check off at least 3 of the following:

    ✔️You don’t know what to do first (or last) on the college-bound journey.

    ✔️You’re worried that not knowing how to support your child will limit their opportunities.

    ✔️Your child seems unmotivated when planning for the future.

    ✔️You’re preparing to invest substantially in college and want to maximize that investment.

    ✔️You want your child to be happy and thrive as they launch into adulthood.

    ✔️You suspect your student might listen to someone else more than you on this topic.

    ✔️You’re tired of leaving things to chance and want proven tools that get results.

    If 3 or more of these resonate with you, check out the details and enroll today:

     

    What’s SPECIAL about this enrollment period? 

    As a special bonus, if you purchase the Launch Career Clarity course during this limited-time offer, you'll get 3 years of access to their exclusive LIVE 'Why This Major' College Essay Workshop.

    By enrolling in Launch Career Clarity, you’re giving your teen the resources they need to know themselves and their future careers well enough to make informed, confident decisions. Graduation is approaching, and now is the time to gain the clarity thousands of other families have achieved.

    Lisa is excited to support both you and your teen on this journey. Hope to see you inside the course!

    Best regards,

    Dave The Scholarship Coach

    This is a LIMITED TIME OFFER - Enrollment Closes Soon.

  • Finding World-Class Test Prep at a Fraction of the Cost - Episode 782

    I recently spoke with Dave Walker of Walker Prep (formerly Quiz Hacker).

    In our conversation, Dave shared:

    Why high-cost “name brand” test prep may not provide the return on investment that parents and students should expect.

  • Why one-on-one boutique test prep may provide better results, but still may not be necessary for the entire test prep process.

  • Why budget test prep often doesn’t produce the results that students need.

  • Why a “hybrid approach” may be the best approach to test prep for many families.

  • Some timelines for the Class of 2025 and 2026 regarding test prep.

    You can connect with Dave by visiting WalkerTestPrep.com or by emailing Dave at [email protected].

    And check out Dave’s fantastic article, “Unlocking Scholarship Opportunities Through ACT and SAT Scores".”
