We’ll help you hit it out of the park.
You’ve been planning for college since birth. All the education, tests, tutors, last-minute homework, tears and smiles have led to here: you’re going to college! From the moment the acceptance letters started hitting the mailbox, the reality set in…and you began to wonder if you were really prepared. How much will it cost? Do we have enough set aside? If not, where do we turn next?
Good news. INvestEd has partnered with thousands of students and parents to help them make the best college planning decisions. From help filing the FAFSA to suggestions for how to compare college costs, INvestEd is there for any family with questions.
Just like prepping for a test, making the right choices for your family when it comes to paying for college requires some study. Check out the information pages in our Prep, Compare and Afford sections that will help you make informed choices so you finish college with minimum debt.

INvestEd has been helping my students with information about the best ways to pay for college wisely for almost ten years. I highly recommend their work and enthusiasm!
The tools and staff INvestEd provides Columbia City High School is vital to our students and families. They provide assistance through every step of the college planning process, from the benefits of an education to financial planning. The INvestEd team is there for us at our annual College Fair, Financial Aid Night, FAFSA Completion Night, and Spring College Information Night. The staff is wonderful, approachable, and eager to help our families. CCHS is blessed to have them in our community throughout the school year.
INvestEd was extremely helpful while working with the parents at our FAFSA completion night. They were able to give advice and wisdom throughout the process. I have given out their contact information many times since!"
INvestEd has been a God-send for the students and families at Lawrence North High School; from our Early Financial Awareness meetings to FAFSA completion they have been attentive to our needs, responsive to our e-mail/phone call requests, and always willing to help families understand the college going process and how to pay for post-secondary options. We have enjoyed working with them throughout the years and cannot wait to get on their calendar for the upcoming semesters. Thank you for your expertise, professionalism, commitment to service, and sense of humor. Our parents leave your sessions empowered, educated, and enlightened about the financial aid process. Keep up the great work!
Thank YOU for providing such an excellent service for our families! EVERYONE who walked out talked about how helpful it was, and that is a testament to the knowledge and expertise of INvestEd staff!
We are always excited to have the folks at INvestEd visit our library. They are knowledgeable and friendly. What more could you ask?
Whiteland Community High School values the services and programs offered by INvestEd. The presentations to parents on financial aid are easy to understand, beginning with the basics of the financial aid process and ending with an overview of the FAFSA document. Parents leave with a better understanding on the process and how to avoid common mistakes. The staff is very knowledgeable about the financial aid process and stayed long after the presentation to answer individual parent questions. INvestEd has also presented to our students about the importance of training after high school and how to plan for the cost. The presenter made this information relevant to the student and talked about cost of tuition, loan debt and income potential in a powerful and meaningful way.
INvestEd has been a lifesaver! With large caseloads and increasing duties each year, it has been extremely beneficial to have them come talk to our parents and students about financial aid and college planning. We have used INvestEd all the way from elementary school to high school! I can’t say enough positive things about the team, and I cannot imagine not having them around to help!
The resources and information that INvestEd provided for our students was awesome. Because of INvestEd, we were able to assist 15 students in taking steps to prepare for college. These are students who at one point never believed higher education was attainable. Many thanks to the INvestEd team for your time, dynamic presentation, and support for our students through the process.
INvestEd has been an excellent resource for our students, parents, and for myself as a counselor. They are always looking for ways to serve the students in our community and have been an excellent partner in coordinating educational presentations and events for our stakeholders. We are lucky to have such a knowledgeable, responsive, and FREE resource to pass on to our students!
