This session will take a look at a number of the software products that are currently available to assist today's financial-aid administrators in their daily routine. Paying for college — Advising parents and students. This session will assist you in advising students and parents about how to pay for college, including the various options available before, during and after students obtain their postsecondary education. Topics will include saving for college, tax benefits of student loans and bankruptcy of student-loan borrowers. Professional judgment and verification — Key considerations.
