Getting In: A College Coach Conversation

Getting In: A College Coach Conversation

Thursday at 1 PM Pacific

July 22nd 2021: Financial Fit; Supporting Your Recruited Athlete; UC Myths

We frequently—and strongly—suggest that families discuss what they can afford when it comes to college. But talking money can be challenging. We have advice to make “the talk” a bit easier.

Finally, we will address the most common myths we hear regarding the University of California schools.
