Unlocking the Secrets to an Affordable College Education for Everyone
Did you know that the average private college discounted their tuition 56.2% in 2022? Unfortunately, the confusing and complex financial aid process has the FAFSA completion rate hovering around 50%. This disproportionately affects first generation and low-income college bound students from getting the free money for college that they qualify for and desperately need.
The NAPFA Foundation College Affordability Project is committed to helping every family understand the true cost of college and connecting them with tools and resources they need to cut the cost of college.
Learning Objectives:
