How do I pay for my daughter to go to college this fall?


Question:
My daughter was accepted at a school that costs $23,000 a year. I've saved about $22,000 but don't know the best way to pay for the rest. What is the best combination of student and parent loans to get?

Answer:
You were supposed to open a 529 when she was a baby.

If you have more children. I suggest you to open a 529 today.

She has to get a summer job a soon as possible and save her entire paycheck.

She can work part time after school too as soon as possible and save her entire paycheck.

Increase your credit score to above 700 (If you don't know how, drop me a line)

I need you to answer a few questions:
Where do you live (State)?
How many years is she going to college?
Is she in the top 10% of her class?
What is your current credit score?
How much do you make each year?
If you work maybe try saving a few 500-$700 and then try sending it to her my some shipping company. Or maybe easier if you have a back account try sending her a few checks
I would look into financial aid and see if your daugther will qualify for anything. You would be surprised how easy it is to qualify, and the best part is that you don't have to pay the money back.
