FINANCIAL
AID AND SCHOLARSHIPS
 The biggest myth about financial aid is that many seem
to think they will not get assistance because their income is
too high. That may or may not be true. However, it is true that
you/your child could get a full scholarship even if the family
income is over $500,000.
Filing for financial aid is a personal decision that
should be discussed with a financial aid professional.
Each college has their own formula for determining need. An accountant can identify new tax laws, savings
plans, and other deductions pertaining to higher education.
However, many accountants are not as familiar with the Federal
Methodology used in filling in financial aid applications and
might not be as well versed in all the areas of financial aid
programs, forms and scholarships.
