Empowering families to shop smarter for college
About us
We are a team on a mission to ensure every student who wants it, has access to an affordable college education. How can we do that? By changing the way we shop for college and educating families about financial aid. At College Aid Pro™ we know families are overpaying for college and taking on too much student loan debt. Every student deserves a great education at a price their family can afford. Our software platform demystifies financial aid and helps students find schools that will give them the most "free money" to graduate debt free. In addition, we support high schools with free financial aid curriculum to educate and empower their students and parents to show every family their affordable path to college. We work with financial advisors and IECs as your college financial fit partner so you can help your clients and families find the best college experience at a price they can afford. College Aid Pro educates and empowers families who want to give their college bound kids the opportunity to follow their dreams without a mountain of debt. Let us help.
