A free workshop by The College Funding Coach

This presentation is designed to help families navigate one of the biggest financial challenges they face—paying for college without sacrificing their long-term retirement goals. We break down the true cost of college, highlight common planning mistakes, and introduce strategic ways to reduce out-of-pocket expenses.

Attendees will learn how to build a smarter college funding strategy by leveraging tax-efficient savings vehicles, understanding how financial aid works (even for higher-income families), and identifying opportunities to maximize cash flow and minimize taxes.
