College Planning Package


Planning for college can be difficult, expensive, and overwhelming if you try to do it on your own. You’ll need to prepare both academically and financially. It involves choosing the right school, the best career, maximizing a financial aid package, and managing the application process. This is the time to make sure your student develops the right skills, prepares for the SATs, learns resume building, and explores all of their future opportunities. With 2 out of 3 students taking longer than 4 years to complete college, costs can escalate rapidly, especially when students change majors frequently.

Don’t Risk Losing Financial Aid

Turning to the professionals at Ecliptic Financial Advisors will not only simplify the process, it can save you thousands of dollars, solidify your child’s preparation for college and career, and help you avoid missing important deadlines. The average family that enrolls in one of our college planning network programs receives $19,075 in financial aid. Our average “under awarded” family (after appeal by our CPN team) receives an additional $4,809 per year in aid.
