Question: I’m a high school senior headed to my dream college this fall. I’m very excited to start the next chapter of my life and so glad that I got into my #1 pick. All this being said, I am a little concerned about one thing. The college recently sent me a financial aid letter and it’s more than a little bit difficult to understand. I don’t have a guidance counselor and my parents are just as confused as I am. Since I’ll be taking out loans to pay for college, I really want to understand what the school is offering me and if I’m getting a good deal. Where can I get advice?
