Scholarship Maximization Walk-Through Sessions
One of my biggest concerns is that parents, students, and schools are not taking advantage of the Scholarship Programs. So, I have opened my schedule for a limited number of free 15 minute scholarship maximization walk-throughs. We can meet via webinar or over the phone to make sure you get the largest scholarships possible.
Email, Facebook Group, Live Chat
I also try to be as available as I can through email, Facebook Group, and live chat on this site in addition to holding "Scholarship Maximization Review" workshops, webinars and sessions.
Ask the Experts
I can also put you in touch with many of the Experts I've interviewed for my book. Some have volunteered to be very accessible in terms of answering questions. Contact me if you would like to be featured here or know someone who might be open to helping.

Get Extra Support
Sometimes you just need to hire someone to help. During the book research I started to meet some great people that I trust to help families. I also found lists of professionals and companies you may not be aware of. You can contact them through this website and interview them yourself. P.S. You may be able to earn extra College Scholarships when you work with them.
