I recently spoke with Sam Bernstein, co-founder of Loper, a free mobile app designed to help students explore and discover their best educational opportunities after high school. The inspiration for Loper came out of the pandemic, where “life on pause” led to two college friends (Sam and his co-founder Eric) spending long nights discussing their shared passion: education. Fast forward two years and they quit their jobs to launch Loper, which has now helped nearly 200,000 students find best-fit opportunities after high school. Since founding Loper Sam has spoken at nearly a dozen industry conferences, and he always loves the opportunity to present to both students and parents on college and career readiness. Sam lives in Chicago, loves to bike, and (so far) has kept up with his 2025 resolution to read more fiction. In our conversation, Sam and I discussed: How students can use the Loper app to discover their best fit college How parents can use the app to help their student better manage the college planning process How counselors can use Loper to help their students with the college process And much more… To learn more about Loper, go to getloper.com or download the app for free. ---------- Start your scholarship journey this summer with the Scholarship Summer Camp.

I recently spoke with Luanne Lee, Owner of Your College Planning Coach. Luanne wanted to do something where she could make an impact to help families and feel good about what she did every day, so she began her career in Financial Services in 1996. Luanne decided to focus on the specialty of College Planning and Funding when she saw how student loan debt was hampering so many parents and students from reaching their retirement goals. Little did she know at the time just how specialized college planning was! Luanne has undergone extensive licensing and training as a College Financial Planning Specialist and for the past 15+ years has devoted her practice to providing financial education and efficient solutions to families maneuvering through the complex process of planning and funding for college without jeopardizing their retirement goals. In our conversation, Luanne and I discuss: Whether in-state college is always the least expensive option Whether you can rely on your guidance counselor through the college admissions process Whether families should “go it alone” through the college planning process Why parents are usually on the hook for their kids student loans Why families who “make too much money” should still fill out the FAFSA Whether saving for college will hurt the student's ability to get financial aid The importance of outside scholarships in paying for college Whether AP Courses will cut the cost of college by letting the student graduate earlier And much more… To connect with Luanne and learn more about how she works with students and families, go to ycpcoach.com.

I recently spoke with Reid Meyer of A2A Academy and the Student-Athlete Advisors. Reid always knew that sports would be a significant part of his life. Growing up, he dreamed of playing college sports, and he vividly recalls feeling anxious about second-guessing every decision he made in high school regarding his college opportunities. After attending four schools in four years and ultimately giving up the sport he loved after just two, Reid realized there had to be a better way to support student-athletes and their families. Following years of schooling, training, and feedback, the A2A Academy emerged as the premier program to assist student-athletes and their families as they navigate one of the most critical decisions of their lives to date. In our conversation, Reid and I discussed: The expectations, based on statistics, that students and families should have about playing Division 1 sports The need to find the right fit college for student-athletes Why tenacity is needed when it comes to getting noticed by colleges and coaches Funding opportunities for student-athletes at Division 3 colleges And much more Connect with Reid at https://www.joina2a.com/ or https://www.thestudentathleteadvisors.com/ ---------- Whether you are prepping for the May or June SAT, J&J's test prep starts on April 13th.

For over a decade, Lisa Marker-Robbins has helped roughly 4000 high school students and young adults gain the insight, experiences, and confidence they need to embark on their post-high school path. Along the way, however, she noticed an alarming trend: Teens struggled to find their true purpose–and the fallout wasn't pretty. There was a lot of uncertainty around college majors and future careers. As a result, students weren't graduating college on time, and even when they did, they often left college underemployed or unemployed altogether. Gaining college and career clarity not only sets up the student to thrive in college and puts them on the path to future career success, but it's also beneficial for finding and winning scholarships. More than half of the private scholarships my son won, both in high school and while in college, were directly related to his college major. The other scholarships, while open to students of all majors, were still won due to his compelling Personal Narrative - his story of his plans, with the ability to point to past achievements related to those plans. Whether your child is in high school or college, if they need clarification about their future career or even their college major, I can think of no better investment than the programs that Lisa and Flourish Coaching offer.

For over a decade, Lisa Marker-Robbins has helped nearly 4,000 high school students and young adults gain the insight, experiences, and confidence they need to embark on their post-high school path. Along the way, however, she noticed an alarming trend: Teens struggled to find their true purpose - devastatingly impacting the student's college admissions and scholarship success. In our conversation, Lisa shared: Why strong GPAs and high test scores may not be enough to gain admittance to your student's dream college. Why “knowing where you want to go” is critical for college admissions and scholarships. Why your teen is NOT too young to get clarity on their future college major and career, and how most of the world is better preparing teens for career clarity. The role of college major clarity in college admissions, based on actual data from the colleges. Why high self-awareness is critical for a student's future success with college admissions and scholarships. Lisa has a complimentary video on “How to guide your teen to choose the right major, college, & career” that she created for parents (and students), and she's given me permission to share this with my audience! In this, she'll cover: How flipping the script on the college admissions process can help ensure an on-time (and on budget!) graduation and a career your teen will love. How to know *beyond any doubt* that your teen has chosen the right college, major, and career path, and hasn't based their decision on luck, picked the “safe” option, or inadvertently restricted their potential. How to ensure your teen's senior year choices don't trap them in an unsuitable major or close the door on an opportunity no amount of money or persuasion can open.

Available on Amazon. I recommend waiting until your student has committed to a college before buying most of their dorm needs so you know exactly what the school allows and recommends. However, a few items are universally needed, no matter which college, dorm, or apartment your student ends up in. Here are a few of those items: Dorms are notoriously dusty, moldy, and full of germs. A good air purifier is a great investment to help your student stay healthy at college. Speaking of dirty, keep your kid's feet clean with a pair of shower shoes. It seems that no college student can survive these days without carrying their Stanley filled with their favorite beverage. And, to keep their devices charged on the go, don't forget a portable charger. By the way, you support Scholarship GPS at no extra cost to you when you shop on Amazon using my affiliate link: https://amzn.to/3CPcoyO This “gift” is for the parents and guardians… When our kids turn 18, we lose the ability to legally help them in emergency situations unless the proper paperwork is in place.

In last week's episode, I shared my interview with Lisa Marker-Robbins, who has helped nearly 4,000 high school students and young adults gain the insight, experiences, and confidence they need to embark on their post-high school path. In that conversation, we discussed why strong GPAs and high test scores may not be enough for your student to gain admittance to their dream college. Today, Lisa was kind enough to let me share an episode of her College and Career Clarity Podcast. At many schools, like the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, prospective students must apply to a specific major when applying to college during the high school senior year. Since this is not standard at all colleges, it can be a confusing hurdle for many high schoolers and their families – but it doesn't have to be. What does this mean for your teen? In this episode of the College and Career Clarity Podcast, Lisa Marker-Robbins speaks with Andy Borst, UIUC's Director of Undergraduate Admissions, you'll learn how college major-based admissions works and how to set your teen up to successfully navigate the process. Although it can sometimes seem like it, admissions officers aren't in the business of crushing your teen's dreams. In fact, they want to make things possible for as many students as they can, and that's where a college major-based admissions process can come into play. Each university can only accommodate a certain number of students in each program, so this type of application can help admissions staff focus on the students that are truly interested in the major and most likely to thrive. When it comes to schools that admit by major, you might be surprised to learn that certain majors at these schools might be restricted to your student applying only as a 12th grader. For instance, if your child wants to study Computer Science at UIUC, they can only be admitted as a freshman or a transfer from another school. This means it's crucial that your student does the work in high school to identify a college major that aligns to their wiring. Andy warns not to try to take a shortcut into these highly competitive majors by applying for a different major in the hopes of transferring into your student's desired field later. Trying to game the system isn't wise. In these cases, your teen will be better off attending a different university where they have an assured start in their top choice major. Highlights What is college admission by major What majors are among the most popular and therefore most competitive How do restricted majors eliminate options for many high school students When can your teen choose a second college major Question to ask colleges about admission by major Lisa has a complimentary video on “How to guide your teen to choose the right major, college, & career” that she created for parents (and students), and she's given me permission to invite my people! In this, she'll cover: How flipping the script on the college admissions process can help ensure an on-time (and on budget!) graduation and a career your teen will love. How to know *beyond any doubt* that your teen has chosen the right college, major, and career path, and hasn't based their decision on luck, picked the “safe” option, or inadvertently restricted their potential. How to ensure your teen's senior year choices don't trap them in an unsuitable major or close the door on an opportunity no amount of money or persuasion can open. Click here to watch Lisa's complimentary video, “How to guide your teen to choose the right major, college, & career,” here: flourishcoachingco.com/gps In a recent interview, the mom of a $111,000 scholarship winner said that college major and career clarity are ‘essential' for success with scholarships! That is why I am offering several special bonuses for families who sign up for Lisa's Launch Career Clarity Program. Those bonuses are: Access to my Personal Narrative mini-course: In this video-based course, you will learn about the Five Pillars and how they relate to a student's Personal Narrative - a key component for winning scholarships.

For over a decade, Lisa Marker-Robbins has helped nearly 4,000 high school students and young adults gain the insight, experiences, and confidence they need to embark on their post-high school path. Along the way, however, she noticed an alarming trend: Teens struggled to find their true purpose - devastatingly impacting the student's college admissions and scholarship success. In our conversation, Lisa shared: Why strong GPAs and high test scores may not be enough to gain admittance to your student's dream college. Why “knowing where you want to go” is critical for college admissions and scholarships. Why your teen is NOT too young to get clarity on their future college major and career, and how most of the world is better preparing teens for career clarity. The role of college major clarity in college admissions, based on actual data from the colleges. Why high self-awareness is critical for a student's future success with college admissions and scholarships.

In our conversation, Katia shared: The timeline for standardized tests Why she recommends students NOT take the SAT or ACT more than three times How a student's passions, perspectives, and achievements with extracurriculars affect college admissions How high school freshmen, sophomores, and juniors should approach participating in extracurricular activities to build an application theme A timeline for requesting letters of recommendation A timeline for college visits and how to get the most out of them You can connect with Katia by visiting BosonEd.org. Also, be sure to read the article Katia referenced in our discussion, “【Case study】What kind of student got into Princeton?'" Class of 2026: As Katia said in our discussion, high school juniors need to begin their college planning process right now. That includes planning how to pay for college, including scholarships. Did you know a FULL RIDE scholarship is open for high school juniors right now? Did you know that a different scholarship covering full tuition for any college in the country will be opening for juniors this spring? These are just two of the many scholarship opportunities open to high school juniors. My son won his first scholarship as a high school junior. In the Scholarship GPS Course, you will find an interview with a high school junior who won a $35,000 scholarship! So, while you need to start the college planning that Katia talked about, high school juniors also need to begin the scholarship process. If you have a high school junior and would like to schedule a FREE consultation to learn about scholarships for high school juniors, drop me an email at Dave@NoDebtCollege.com ------- This week's featured scholarships: American Culinary Federation Education Foundation Scholarships American Bullion Scholarship $60,000 Modeling the Future Challenge $20,000 National Space Club and Foundation Keynote Scholar $8000 Regions Riding Forward Scholarship Weekender: $2500 SoFi Scholarship Giveaway

Every year, I see the same thing: high school seniors who find every reason not to apply for scholarships. Here is what one mom said in an online forum when asked what she wishes she had done differently during her child's senior year: "I wish I had pushed my HS senior to commit to applying for scholarships. Later in her senior year, she found all kinds of ways to avoid putting in the effort."- Mom of Class of 2024 Grad. If your student is in the Class of 2025, they must start applying for scholarships immediately. Otherwise, here's the list of “reasons” that they won't be able to start later: September: “School just started. I need to adjust to my new schedule before working on scholarships.” October: “I need to work on my college applications and essays before working on scholarships.” November: “It's Thanksgiving! Don't I deserve a break?!” December: “I need to fill out the FAFSA before working on scholarships.” January: “I need to adjust to my new spring class schedule before working on scholarships.” February: “I need to get my college acceptance before I start working on scholarships.” March: “My spring sport takes too much time to work on scholarships.” April: “I need to do all the graduation prep before I work on scholarships.” May: “Prom prep is taking up all of my free time. I can't work on scholarships.” June: “All of the good scholarships are closed.” Your student's list of “reasons” will vary, but you get the point: Students can always find a “reason” that they can't apply for scholarships. However, it's important to remember that the earlier they start, the more opportunities they will have. So, let's not let these “reasons” hold us back. Let's start applying for scholarships now and make the most of the opportunities available. The hardest part of scholarships is getting started. But, Class of 2025 students who start now will not only get over this hump but also enjoy these benefits: They will build a portfolio of scholarship essays that they can reuse for many more scholarship applications throughout their senior year. They will have the experience and skills needed to be better scholarship applicants in the spring when their local scholarship opportunities (usually) open up. They could win one of the $20,000, $30,000, $50,000, or other high-dollar scholarships open to seniors this fall! It's crucial to understand the urgency of the situation. Did you know that the Class of 2025 has already missed a FULL TUITION and a FULL RIDE scholarship opportunity? Every day a student delays is another lost scholarship opportunity. Perhaps you and your student are willing to start, but you aren't sure how. The Scholarship GPS Course will get you and your student up to speed quickly. Here are just some of the highlights from the course: How and where to find scholarships How to prioritize the right scholarships How to build a student's Personal Narrative: The Key to Scholarship Success How to respond to the most common scholarship essay topics Plus, throughout the fall, I will be adding lessons on some of the biggest scholarship opportunities for the Class of 2025 - scholarships that virtually every senior should apply for! The tools, tactics and strategies I share in the Scholarship GPS Course are the same ones I used to coach my own son to over $95,000 in scholarships, to coach Isabella to 14 scholarship wins, and to coach Talon to over $100,000 in scholarships!

For over a decade, Lisa has helped over 3,600 high school students and young adults gain the insight, experiences, and confidence they need to embark on their post-high school path. Along the way, however, she noticed an alarming trend: Teens struggled to find their true purpose–and the fallout wasn't pretty. There was a lot of uncertainty around college majors and future careers. As a result, students weren't graduating college on time, and even when they did, they often left college underemployed or unemployed altogether. From my perspective, gaining college and career clarity not only sets up the student to thrive in college and puts them on the path to future career success, but it's also beneficial for finding and winning scholarships. More than half of the private scholarships my son won, both in high school and while in college, were directly related to his college major. The other scholarships, while open to students of all majors, were still won due to his compelling Personal Narrative - his story of his future plans, with the ability to point to past achievements related to those plans. Whether your child is in high school or college, if they are unclear about their future career or even their college major, I can think of no better investment than to look into the programs that Lisa and Flourish Coaching offer.

She enjoys teaching and challenging students to think outside the box. As a parent and home educator, she saw the need for the social sciences to be taught in a way that interests kids. She also saw a need for personalized History and Civics education. In our conversation, Donna shares: How ‘Social Studies' is defined, and what subjects that includes. Ideas for how to get students more interested in Social Studies. Why students need to learn Social Studies, regardless of their career focus. What careers are open to students who study Social Studies. To connect with this week's guest, Donna Vitek from Liberty Tutors, go to www.LibertyTutors.net.

Alex is the Founder of Career Pursuit. His vision is to see Millennials and Gen Z find purpose and financial prosperity through rewarding careers, ultimately enabling them to lead fulfilling lives and make a meaningful impact on the world. Career Pursuit does this by equipping its clients with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to navigate today's job market successfully, leading to a rewarding career. In our conversation, Alex shares his views on: The overall job outlook for current students and recent grads. How job applicants need to present themselves to land a job (which also works for scholarships, as well!). The careers and college majors that will be in demand over the next 5-10 years. Why going to college to “find your passion” is no longer practical. To connect with this week's guest, Alex McKercher from Career Pursuit, go to CareerPursuit.net or on LinkedIn. Alex stressed the importance of knowing your passion and career path. If your student is unsure of their path, check out the fantastic programs offered by Flourish Coaching. Having college major and career clarity will not only help with college admissions and future job prospects, but it's also a key part of scholarship success.
