You’re not clueless. You’re not lazy.

___

You’re just drowning in college money advice that makes zero sense.

___

Because you're listening to the wrong people!

One expert from college admissions says Don't take out loans. My $6,000 package will show you how!

Another expert who won some scholarships to help pay for their college ten years ago says scholarships are everywhere like free candy. And she'll charge you $3,000 to show you where.

image.png

Another expert financial advisor says to get rid of your 529 and use life insurance to pay for college. (And guess what... They just happen to be licensed to sell life insurance. So handy!)

image.png

Another expert just left their job in fast food and bought a How to Be A College Consultant franchise, where they try to sell you $5,000 packages. (Yes, that's a real thing.)

image.png

Your neighbor swears their cousin hacked the FAFSA. (Nope. That's called "student aid fraud.")

image.png

And your hairdresser says that her best friend's son got a full-ride merit scholarship to Harvard. (Harvard doesn't award any merit aid. They only award need-based aid.)

image.png

Meanwhile, you're Googling “How to not cry about tuition.”

___

I get it. Parents tell me this every single day. And trust me - you're not alone.

___

Real grown-ups cry over tuition math. A lot.

____

So stop listening to the wrong people, and start getting reliable actual expert information from a former college financial aid director who:

  • - Has over 33 years of experience working in college financial aid offices, and

  • - Doesn't have any packages that cost thousands of dollars to sell you.

Hi, I’m Tara PK — The Scholarship Whisperer.

I spent 33 years working in college financial aid offices helping families just like yours.

____

Not pretending… not guessing… actually doing it.

____

At my last job, people used to pay $500-$600 for an hour-long conversation with me about how to pay for college.

____

Now I make it affordable because every family deserves this info— not only the ones who can drop $5,000 on consultant.

The Smart Parents’ College Affordability Blueprint is only open a few times each year, and I limit the number of families who can join each time.

I do this so every family can find convenient times on my calendar for our calls.

And also because I’m one human, not a robot who can coach 200 families a week (also, I like sleep).

The next Smart Parents' College Affordability Blueprint is opening soon!
