Hi. I'm Angela.
I'm a mom of five. I have spent over 20 years in higher education at UCLA, Arizona State, and an elite international sports academy, advising student athletes from 56 countries. My grandmother was Associate Dean at UMass. My mother worked in education around the world. I'm a third-generation educator who has a heart for service.
And what I know after all of that is this. Most families know 3 to 5 ways to pay for college. There are over 126.
That is why I built The College Cost Hack community and newsletter.
Every week, you will get two real strategies for cutting college costs. Not theory. Not motivation. Actual hacks that save families real money, including CLEP exams, dual enrollment, scholarship stacking, financial aid appeals, net price calculators, and schools most families never find.
Here is what is coming.
Every week, you will get two hacks and three action steps matched to your teen's grade level and timed to the admissions calendar. Paid members also get a weekly tool or template to put each hack into action. You will never have to wonder what you should be doing right now. You will open the email and act.
Everything you need is free and there are tools and templates that are added to the paid newsletter which is a fraction of the cost of a private college admissions counselor.
I believe this is my gift. The thing I was put here to do. To make sure a family like yours has the same information the wealthy families pay thousands for without the price tag.
You are not behind. You are not too late. You are here. And that already puts your family ahead of most.
Welcome.
Angela
P.S. Reply to this email and tell me what grade your teen is in. I read every reply. It helps me make sure the right hacks are reaching you at the right time.
P.P.S. "The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now." That goes for college planning, too.
