12 Days of Christmas 2021: Day 1

12 days of christmas day 1(I’m taking a break from regular blogging and newsletters during the holidays. Hope you enjoy the DIY College Rankings version of the 12 Days of Christmas.)

On the first day of Christmas, DIY College Rankings wrote to me:

In case you missed it this past year, one must read.

15 Things Parents of High School Freshmen Must Know NOW About Getting Into and Paying for College!

If I had only one post people read from my website, I would pick this one. Ideally, it would be read by parents when their kids are freshman. The earlier parents are aware of the realities of paying for college, the more likely they will be able to orient the college admissions process to maximizing their potential financial aid. After all, you can’t get financial aid from colleges you never apply to.

For those who have already submitted their financial aid applications, you MUST visit TuitionFit because “Maybe You Can Get Money From a College You’ve Never Applied To.


I know not everyone can or needs to buy my college search spreadsheets. But if you’ve found my website useful this past year and are in the position to provide some financial support, I would sincerely appreciate it.
