Let's Break The Ice!๐ง
We're so happy you found us!๐
This community is for parents and guardians seeking trusted advice and direction on getting their child to college or into a career. Itโs a safe space to connect and share with others on the same journey, with access to top experts on the path to college.
Letโs kick things off with an icebreaker! In the comments:
- Introduce yourself! Tell us a bit about your high schooler and what your biggest college concerns are. ๐ค
- Let us know!: Where is your studentโs head at right now? Are they eyeing a specific career path, locked in on a college goal, or still firmly in the 'I have no idea' phase? (Honestly, 'no idea' is a perfectly valid starting point!) ๐

My son is a senior this year and plans to go to a community college at first and then transfer to complete his degree. He wants to be a teacher, but he has not chosen a specialty. He knows he wants to teach at the middle school level or higher. My biggest concerns is paying for college. We have filled out the FASFA, so we will see what options we will have.

@dstewart Thanks for sharing, Dan! Financial aid and learning about all of the scholarship and payment options are definitely challenges in the process of helping our kids chase their dreams. If this is your first go around, this discussion might be helpful in learning about payment options: Paying for College
You can also check out the College Board's SCHOLARSHIP SEARCHING TOOL to learn about other scholarships your son can apply for!2
