In this episode, Lisa and Cathy discuss:
- Creating a responsible, not perfect, college list.
- Reconciling what actions parents can do and what is the students’ responsiblity.
- Defining success as a family for better communication.
- Merit-based and need-based scholarships.
Key Takeaways:
- College is different from when parents were in school than it is now. It is even wildly different just from pre-COVID to post-COVID college admissions.
- Define success as a family so everyone is communicating in the same language before you begin building your student’s college list.
- Have a budget in mind before your student starts looking at college campuses.
- There is a mindset around the financial aspect of college education. Think of in-state tuition as your tuition discount.
- When looking at colleges, establish the emotional parameters, but you can’t argue with the data on what the schools are looking for and their institutional priorities.
“It's like many relationships in business, you get the money conversation done, and then you know where to go from there. A lot of parents don't think of it that way because it is an emotional purchase. I've never met a parent that doesn't think their child deserves the absolute best, and so defining best is crucial to the relationship.” – Cathy Copeland Titus
