I seriously would have no idea what to do when it came to applying for collegeswithout EDFIN. Took care of everything and made sure you are the most prepared. I wouldn‘t be able to apply to the school that I did without EDFIN.

It's great working with Shelly and her team. They made it easy to do college applications and made sure that we got the most out of the scholarships and grants available for my son and daughter. It takes out all the worries and saves us time from filling out all the applications and making sure that it is accurate and submitted ahead of time. Shelly also makes sure that we are in the know and guides us through the process. She has to right experience and know-how to guide us through. I highly recommend her for your family.

This is my second time using EDFIN for my children's college planning. Shelly and her team are very diligent in completing task timely, reducing stress to the student via proper planning, dealing with government agencies, and all in all making the process and seamless as possible. Both my children were awarded thousands of dollars via benefits, entitlements, and other sources. Worth every penny!!!
