I recently spoke with Brian Eufinger of Edison Prep. Brian graduated with honors from Washington University in St. Louis in May 2004 and a Healthcare MBA in 2006. He serves as a founding board member of the National Test Prep Association and is an Associate member of the Independent Educational Consultants Association. More recently, he represents Edison Prep in a consortium of four tutoring companies that created Assessiv, an online digital SAT practice platform that Edison Prep students and students nationwide use.
In our conversation, Brian and I discussed:
Why, in many situations, “Test-Optional” is a lie
How test scores can result in tens of thousands of dollars in merit aid
How Brian supplemented merit aid with private scholarships
The opportunity cost of failing to prepare for standardized tests and applying for scholarships
Why GPA is ‘sacred’
Merit Aid Grids - the easy-to-use, free website to find out how much your student can receive in scholarships based on their GPA and test score
And much more…

I recently spoke with Luanne Lee, Owner of Your College Planning Coach.
Luanne wanted to do something where she could make an impact to help families and feel good about what she did every day, so she began her career in Financial Services in 1996.
Luanne decided to focus on the specialty of College Planning and Funding when she saw how student loan debt was hampering so many parents and students from reaching their retirement goals. Little did she know at the time just how specialized college planning was!
Luanne has undergone extensive licensing and training as a College Financial Planning Specialist and for the past 15+ years has devoted her practice to providing financial education and efficient solutions to families maneuvering through the complex process of planning and funding for college without jeopardizing their retirement goals.
In our conversation, Luanne and I discuss:
Whether in-state college is always the least expensive option
Whether you can rely on your guidance counselor through the college admissions process
Whether families should “go it alone” through the college planning process
Why parents are usually on the hook for their kids student loans
Why families who “make too much money” should still fill out the FAFSA
Whether saving for college will hurt the student’s ability to get financial aid
The importance of outside scholarships in paying for college
Whether AP Courses will cut the cost of college by letting the student graduate earlier
And much more…

I recently spoke with Reid Meyer of A2A Academy and the Student-Athlete Advisors.
Reid always knew that sports would be a significant part of his life. Growing up, he dreamed of playing college sports, and he vividly recalls feeling anxious about second-guessing every decision he made in high school regarding his college opportunities.
After attending four schools in four years and ultimately giving up the sport he loved after just two, Reid realized there had to be a better way to support student-athletes and their families. Following years of schooling, training, and feedback, the A2A Academy emerged as the premier program to assist student-athletes and their families as they navigate one of the most critical decisions of their lives to date.
In our conversation, Reid and I discussed:
The expectations, based on statistics, that students and families should have about playing Division 1 sports
The need to find the right fit college for student-athletes
Why tenacity is needed when it comes to getting noticed by colleges and coaches
Funding opportunities for student-athletes at Division 3 colleges
And much more
