Early Admission Offers Prompt Families to Begin Decision Process

A December 12, 2005 article from CNN/Money discusses how early admission offers prompt students and families to begin making decisions regarding where the student will attend college. As admission offers are being considered, the article encourages families to factor in the projected financial aid package from the college to see if what the family will be expected to pay is an amount they can afford. Families should communicate with the financial aid office at the college(s) being considered, both to ask any questions they might have and to report significant changes in the family's financial situation.
