Admissions, Scholarships, and Financial Aid"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHave you started looking at colleges yet?\u201d I remember asking my daughter this question 3 years ago when she was a junior in high school.\u00a0 She stared back at me with a pained expression and replied, \u201cI have no idea where to start, or how to do it.\u201d And neither did I.\u00a0 I was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information available and intimidated by the articles suggesting we were already behind. This is not how I did it back in the 90\u2019s. If you can relate to any of this, let me introduce you to College Aid Pro. An online platform created for families to find colleges that align with what you can afford, AND what your child is looking for. We combine our proprietary software and technology with industry experts who help demystify the college process for you. We believe the right tools and the right knowledge make everything easier. When it comes to shopping for college, we\u2019ve got both.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We tailored our software to meet you where you are in the college process. We help determine how much you can afford to spend, combined with your wants and needs in a college, and give you the best options. We\u2019ve got real live people here to help too. When you join our community you\u2019ve got access to our message boards and discussions, webinars, office hours, and opportunities to chat one on one with professionals who guide you through your individual situation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The College Aid Pro software stays on top of <a href=\"https:\/\/collegeaidpro.com\/net-price-calculators-part-of-the-problem-not-the-solution\/\">school\u2019s admission and financial aid requirements.\u00a0<\/a> It allows families to estimate actual college costs, project scholarship awards, and analyze financial aid eligibility. We know the importance of staying current with our data, so our team collects and validates information to keep our platform up-to-date. Current data means more accuracy and confidence for you.\u00a0 Our recent data update provides even more relevant and reliable information for your college search.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Admissions<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to the admissions side of the equation, our platform allows you to compare average GPAs and test scores from admitted student statistics. If you are curious about admission rates, we\u2019ve got that data as well. Find out how to apply, if you have to submit test scores, and how many undergraduates are enrolled at all the schools you are interested in.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Admissions Statistic Updates:<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GPA<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SAT math and verbal range<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Common App<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Test optional<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enrollment<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">% of students admitted last year<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Financial Aid and Scholarships<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the financial aid side, we walk you through all the need and merit opportunities available to you. We share the current advertised cost of attendance and how your expected family contribution, or EFC, is determined, for each school.\u00a0 If you qualify for need-based aid, our software determines grant amounts for the schools on your list.\u00a0 For merit aid, you can find out what schools offer scholarships, and estimate personal award amounts with our proprietary merit scholarship database. You can also find updated statistics on the percentage of need met, and the percentage of students receiving merit, or non-need money, from the schools. We want you to have all the information you need and maximize confidence about your college investment while minimizing the money you spend and borrow.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Financial Aid Statistic Updates<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cost of attendance<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EFC methodology used<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">% of need met<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">% receiving merit scholarships<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Average merit scholarship (non-need) amount<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mycap.collegeaidpro.com\">College Aid Pro<\/a> offers one stop shopping for college.
