Courtney the Great!

Courtney was knowledgeable, swift, and positive. She gave my daughter great tips and things to think about. She helped us get the FAFSA done for two students AND she got me in later the same afternoon to complete the CSS. Amazing!!

Well worth your time

The representative was friendly and made the process quick and easy. If you’re questioning whether to make an appointment, do it! You don’t need to stress regarding whether you’re filling out the application correctly and let’s face it as a parent of a college bound student, we have plenty of other things to worry about.

College Planning Center gets an A+

Our advisor helped us to get an appointment quickly. Her knowledge of both the computer system and the financial aid process made our application a speedy process. She was extremely professional and kind and we LOVED working with her.

Courtney was Awesome

Courtney was Awesome. My son has been lazy about the college apps and is waiting for someone to do it for him or say "during school" here is your time to do the college apps...that's not gonna happen.Courtney re-iterated what I have been telling him "just do it" without talking down to him. She was awesome!!

It will be helpful to have another tab for parents registration. Only have student and educator link

I tried several times to register to no avail. The instructions for non-custodial parent are not intuitive. I had to call the office for direction before I was able to submit the registration. A note indicating parent only needs to fill out the student section will be helpful
