College-bound students and their families can always use experienced advice and support during the college preparation and planning process. Let's face it…college is probably the second largest single expense you will face in a lifetime, right behind buying a home. The average cost of a public four-year college education is about $80,000 and the average cost of a private four-year college education is over $160,000 before financial aid. The problem with these figures is that less than 20% of all Kentucky college students actually graduate in four years, which means your actual cost could be much higher. It takes the average Kentucky college student approximately 5.5 years to graduate with a “four-year” degree, so you can see that the actual cost could be as much as 25-30% higher than the figures quoted. By better preparing for college and making informed decisions, you can reduce your risk of the added expenses and extra semesters due to changing majors and/or changing colleges, and have a better chance of getting into a college or university that is a best fit for you. Most people would seek advice from a professional before buying a home. Why take a chance with the second largest expense you’ll ever make. Get the help you need with your college planning by contacting Eric Ward at My College Design.

Say it with me...FAFSA...FAFSA...FAFSA. I can not emphasize enough the importance of filing your FAFSA today, if you're planning to attend college next fall and need/want state & federal financial aid (and who doesn't?). The number of filers is at an all-time high and the money will most likely run out before the published filing deadline. Do it today! You do not need to have your 2011 tax return completed before you file with FAFSA, so there is no reason to wait.

Everyone planning on attending college in the fall, including incoming freshmen and returning upper classmen, should have already completed the FAFSA. State and federal student-aid is expected to run out very quickly due to an increasing number of students applying for assistance. If you haven't done so already, drop whatever you're doing, go to www.fafsa.ed.gov, and start filling it out right now!
