Resources
Trusted Advice for Smarter Choices
Because we’ve been advising thousands of students and families for decades, we understand this one thing above all: small decisions can add up to big consequences.
That’s why we’ve put together a comprehensive library of resources to help guide families to make those small — and big — decisions with more confidence. And school guidance counselors and financial aid officers, we’ve got help for you, too!
Students
You’re about to embark on the most important journey of your life, where you’ll be making big decisions almost every day. Our guidance and trusted advice will help you feel confident that you’re making smarter choices that will set you on the right path.
Parents
It’s a classic case of “good news, bad news.” Your student is heading to college (that’s the great news!), but now you have to figure how out to afford it. Don’t panic! We can help you navigate the landscape.
Counselors
Every year, you’re tasked with providing your students all the information they need to make smart, informed decisions about college. At INvestEd, our mission is to help you do just that.
INvestEd has become a vital resource for our seniors and parents that are transitioning to higher education. The presentations on financial aid, workshops to assist with filing and individual advice have been a resource that our families have benefited from. I feel confident that I am giving our families a trusted resource that will guide them during a stressful time.
The partnership created between INvestEd and our parents and staff has been invaluable. Completion of the FAFSA with the INvestEd professionals, as well as using the materials provided regarding scholarships and college planning, are key to a smooth transition from high school to post-secondary education.
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.
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.
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 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!
We are always excited to have the folks at INvestEd visit our library. They are knowledgeable and friendly. What more could you ask?
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!
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 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!
