Honolulu - College Planning 530PM 2018-05-21

Please join John Norden for an Educational College Financial Planning class that will focus on high school sophomores, juniors and seniors.

He will discuss the FAFSA form and all the other information you need to understand in order to maximize the amount of financial aid you are eligible to receive!

Even if your family is not eligible for need-based aid, we will cover the best strategies on how to pay for college in the most cost efficient basis — without it putting a strain on the rest of your finances.

In this workshop, you will learn:

• How to increase your college-related tax deductions and tax credits
• How to pick colleges that will give you the best financial aid packages
• How to send your child to an expensive private university for less than a state school
• Which assets are taken into consideration when the U.S. Department of Education calculates your Expected Family Contribution (EFC)
• How to pay for college in a failing economy without relying on 529 plans, expensive private student loans or raiding your retirement accounts
• How to get ahead by developing a customized plan to meet all the college costs you will incur as a family
• How to lower your “out-of-pocket” costs and get the maximum amount of money from each school

John was formerly Vice President and Financial Consultant at First Hawaiian Bank for 11 years, and is now an authorized advisor and the President of Pacific College Planning Network in Honolulu, HI.
