Webinar Details:

Freshman year can feel “too early” for college planning — but the right early steps make everything easier and cheaper later on.

This webinar is built for Class of 2029 families who want to avoid playing catch-up. We’ll cover the simple, low-stress things to do before the holidays: setting a smart academic foundation, starting healthy activity/exploration paths, and understanding how financial aid and merit awards actually work long before applications begin.

With MyCAP, we’ll show how to get a first look at potential costs and aid paths so your family starts with clarity — not confusion.

 What You’ll Learn:

🏫 The admissions shifts that matter most this year (test-optional, major-based review, competition)
📋 How to build a college list that’s strong academically and financially
💰 Where merit aid + need-based aid come from—and how to target both
🔍 How to see your family's SAI and true out-of-pocket costs ahead of application season with MyCAP
🧭 A clear roadmap to keep your family ahead of deadlines

Register now to head into the holidays knowing you’re on track—and not leaving admissions or aid opportunities to chance.
