The College Planning Edge

College planning tips , strategies and various & sundry, not necessarily politically-correct thoughts on the whole college application and scholarships kit and kaboodle. Brought to you by Pearl and Andy Lockwood, best-selling authors, financial aid and admissions consultants based in Long Island New York, a/k/a one of the spazziest places on earth for college stress, weird ultra-competitive behavior by parents and teens! For more info, visit www.LockwoodCollegePrep.com Each month we tell clients “Here’s What You Should Be Doing Now,” so that they never have to wonder about deadlines for applications, financial aid, when to visit colleges, more. In this session, I ranted (briefy) about fake November 1 emergencies and other client behavior, under the guise of advice to 11th grade and younger families, which I called “Here’s What You Should NOT Do in a Year From Now” I hope you take the advice to heart! -Andy Lockwood
