Everything Class of 2026 Families Need to Know BEFORE the Holidays
Forms, Financial Aid Offers, Appeals, & Next Steps
Webinar Details:
Senior year is here, and while forms may be filed (or still in progress), the bigger question is what comes next — especially if your first financial aid offer isn’t enough.
In this free webinar, we’ll cover the essential end-of-year checklist for Class of 2026 families: finishing FAFSA/CSS correctly, understanding how colleges build aid offers, and preparing now for a strong financial aid appeal if your awards come in lower than your family needs.
You’ll walk away with clear priorities for the weeks ahead and a confident plan for navigating offers and next steps after the holidays.
What You’ll Learn:
💰 Final form tips to avoid errors that can weaken aid
✉️ How to read and evaluate financial aid offers
📚 Why appeals are common — and how to prep before offers arrive
💸 The strongest appeal reasons and what schools look for
✅ Your post-holiday action plan for comparing awards and requesting more aid
🔗 Register now to head into the holidays with a solid plan — and the tools to advocate for the best possible aid package.
