Fit + Funding = Finish

Continuing your education after high school generally pays off in gaining skills, experience, and increased compensation. But the potential high cost of that education can give many sticker shock! We encourage students (and parents) to start their after-high school planning early in order to find the school(s) that best suits your dreams AND needs (fit!), along with exploring options, like financial aid and scholarships, to help pay for it (funding!). Students with these aspects in place are more likely to graduate from their programs (finish!) and save time and money in doing so. Here are some resources to get started:
