A Primer for Parents

Planning for college might seem like a daunting task to many parents and in reality, it is never too early to start thinking about the college education of your children regardless of their age. But if you have children soon approaching college age, you probably feel a mix of excitement and reservation as you anticipate the day when they actually do go off to college. It is exciting to think about them taking that next step but how do you get there? How does the process work? What is it that we need to do, and when? There are likely a host of questions you're asking specific to college planning.
