How to Secure Admission to U.S. Colleges/Universities with Full Funding and Avoid Debt


Hello Reader,

I hope this message finds you well. If you are a prospective college student or have a prospective college student in your life, chances are that not only are you concerned about gaining admission to the appropriate college, but you are also concerned about the cost.

If so, you are not alone. College costs have risen exponentially over the last few decades and household incomes have not kept up. As a result, families have increasingly relied on debt to pay for college. But this has also become unsustainable with student loan debt approaching $2 trillion (with a T!). This has also created a situation where some parents are taking on debt on behalf of their children while still paying off their student loans.

But there is a better way. Admission to U.S. colleges and universities with full funding and without debt is absolutely possible. And it does not matter if a student is interested in an elite very selective college like Harvard or a school that few people have heard of. Our students have done it. They have received admission offers with full funding from selective and non-selective colleges across the country worth hundreds of thousands of dollars per offer. These include Harvard, Cornell. University of Miami, Union College, McDaniel College, etc.

How have they done it? By following our tried and tested framework. If you have a prospective college student in your life who will be applying to college starting in Fall 2025 or later (current high school juniors and younger) I invite you to come learn about it at my upcoming FREE live webinar on Saturday December 7 at 3pm ET. Registration is required. (Note if you saw a previous invite about this, the date has changed). I will discuss in more detail how our framework works and how we produce the results we get.

Here is what you will learn at the webinar:

  1. Our signature framework that our students use to gain admission into U.S. colleges/universities with full funding and avoid debt.
  2. The most important factor in seeking admission with fully-funded scholarships.
  3. The most important component of the college application.
  4. The 10 steps to college without debt. AND…
  5. Your questions about college admissions answered, live.

​Please register immediately and don't put this off. Be sure to submit your questions ahead of time. I hope to see you there. Also please forward this email to anyone with current high school juniors who will be applying to college in 2025.

The sticker price isn't necessarily what your family will pay. Learn how need-based financial aid can change the affordability equation. When families see an elite college with a price tag approaching $100,000 a year, it's easy to assume that these colleges are only for wealthy families. But there's an important distinction between sticker price and actual cost. The Sticker Price Isn't Necessarily What You Pay Most average families cannot afford to pay $100,000 a year for college out of...

Small outside scholarships can help, but they shouldn't be the foundation of your college funding strategy. Here's where families should focus instead. Parents often ask me about scholarships. And understandably so. When college can cost tens of thousands of dollars per year, families are looking everywhere for ways to make it affordable. But there is one scholarship strategy that can quietly consume an enormous amount of a student's time and energy without bringing them significantly closer...

Your income may not tell the whole story about what college will actually cost your family. A six-figure household income does not automatically mean your family will pay full price for college. Here's why the colleges on your list matter. Families earning six figures often assume they've already been eliminated from financial aid. But that's not necessarily true. One reason is that federal financial aid and institutional financial aid are not the same thing. FAFSA is the primary application...
