FIVE TIPS ON COLLEGE FINANCING
  • THINK AHEAD

  • THINK FEDERALLY

  • THINK LOCALLY
    College tuition could be no farther than your own community
  • THINK CATEGORICALLY
    Your student may be eligible for certain college scholarships by virtue of ethnic, religious, and professional affiliation.
  • THINK CORPORATELY
    For Chris Barrett and Luke McCabe, "think corporately" meant draping their dorms, cars, and bodies with the logo of a corporate sponsor.
