USFirst Student Athlete in Family This is our first time having a student athlete in our family, so the info provided was good. Learning the basic differences between different divisions in NCAA and the restrictions on coaches was interesting. The info on how to contact schools and registering with NCAA was great, too.

USWhen being at the webinar When being at the webinar, I learned two valuable options that are provided to assist with college tuition. I am not sure of the exact names but I think one of them was the 529 plan.

USTerrific presentation and resources Julie Shields-Rutyna was a terrific presenter. Together with her colleague, Jennifer, they were able to answer everyone's questions. The information was helpful, actionable and timely. For example, we were reminded of timelines that college-bound students need to keep in mind (specifically asking junior year high school teachers for recommendations this spring); even though we have been through the process with our older student. Furthermore, the online resources they shared will help our middle child chart her own course to college by building credible lists and showing demonstrated interest.
