Chris shares how his Debt Free Degree Triangle makes a debt-free degree possible. 

Chris Corinthian has worked for over 15 years in higher education in the areas of financial aid and financial literacy. 

After working with thousands of students, he realized that students were missing out on scholarships that would aid them in graduating debt-free. 

He witnessed students that didn't have access to this information drop out of school for lack of funds. 

Chris walks high school and current college students through a three-step framework on how to โ€œfind the money, budget the money, and grow the moneyโ€ to pay for school.

How would it feel if you not only had school fully paid for but graduated with a nest egg already in place?

My team and I focus on results. At the end of the day, thatโ€™s all that truly matters. The Student Loan Debt โ€˜Epidemicโ€™ has to be Eliminated once and for all! โŒ๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿฝ

โ›“๏ธThat burden of carrying that massive debt when you graduate can truly weigh heavily on a young person with dreams, visions & lifelong goals.

There are plenty of parents who wish their kids didnโ€™t have to go through any of that. Unfortunately, if they knew how to avoid itโ€ฆthey would.

Scholarships are just ONE way to offset the cost of college without loans. My mission is to show and help as many as I can, learn how to pay for college without student loans. ๐Ÿ’ฐ

Iโ€™ve been helping students from all over get results for a good amount of time now. What Iโ€™ve seen over these several years, is that the ones who put in the consistent workโ€ฆ. Get the results! โœ…โœ…โœ…

๐ŸŽ“ If youโ€™re a parent or guardian who is willing to get in the trenches with your soon-to-be (or current) college student, weโ€™ve developed a proven strategy that has worked for so many students from different backgrounds, income levels, ethnicity, etc.

Itโ€™s never too late! You can do this! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿ’ฏ

๐Ÿ’ต โ€œCan I trust you?โ€ Thatโ€™s really the question that Credit Bureaus ask when trying to determine if and how much money to lend you (or let you borrow).

โ€œCredit is the ability to borrow money or access goods or services with the understanding you will pay later.โ€

โœ… Oneโ€™s credit score is made up of two main data points: โ€œPayment Historyโ€ (How trustworthy are you at paying back money as agreed), and also โ€œCredit Utilizationโ€ (How much of the credit/money available to you are you using?)

โœ… Payment History makes up 35% of your total credit score. Thatโ€™s 192.5 points of your score!

โœ… Credit Utilization makes up 30% of your total score. Thatโ€™s 165 points of your score!

๐Ÿ”‘ Tip: Bring your overall utilization to between 1%-3%. Soooโ€ฆ if you have $100 worth of credit, on your statement/billing date (not due date) you need to be down to $1-$3 dollars. If $10,000โ€ฆ. Then $100-$300.

โœ… If 300 is the lowest possible score, and 850 being the highest credit scoreโ€ฆthen thatโ€™s a total of 550 points difference.

โœ… Between Payment History and Credit Utilization, thatโ€™s 357.5 points. That can bring a score down from Perfect to Poor Credit.

๐Ÿ”‘ If youโ€™re making on time payments, and trying to figure out why your score isnโ€™t going up muchโ€ฆbring your utilization down under 3% and watch the magic happen ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿช„
