College Admissions: Get Into CollegeCollege Admissions: Note: April 15, 2009, The financial picture for parents of college-bound students changes every day.
While I never believe government can do ANYTHING better, there is one exception: instead of privately funded loans, look for government-funded student loans.
Stay tuned, and keep checking our financial aid pages.
