Title: Building Aid Generosity and Affordability into Your School List

Affordability and cost play a part in the college selection process for most families, whether considering need-based aid or merit-based scholarships. The best time to build in affordability and ensure the greatest financial aid opportunities is when building your list. 

Colleges offer data about their award practices and tools to calculate estimated offers. You can use these to understand what you’ll be expected to pay for each college before applying. Time spent on this effort during junior year has enormous returns come senior spring.
