Special Workshop about UNDERSTANDING SCHOLARSHIPS

The Heartland Institute of Financial Education’s College Planning Program (HIFE CPP) is a college planning, coaching and funding program, the purpose of which is to help students and parents successfully navigate the complex college planning, selection and financial aid process.

It is the goal of the Heartland Institute to help young Americans obtain a college education.  We help families offset the high cost of college by utilizing proven strategies to help reduce a family’s “out-of-pocket” costs…

Based on a family’s specific financial situation, we help determine strategies that may reduce the family’s “Expected Family Contribution” (EFC), thereby qualifying the student for “Need-Based” monies from both federal and state resources, as well as the college’s own resources and private resources.

We provide detailed analysis and strategies that help “mitigate” the high cost of college.  Each client/family is assigned a “Coach” who works directly with the student and parents, assisting them with the college planning, funding and admissions process.
