In the united states, the exorbitant cost of College and the complex financial aid process hinders access to higher education and can lead to unsustainable student loans for students that do not have the means to navigate this process. College Affordable, inc.'s mission is to reduce those barriers, particularly among student populations that possess the highest financial need and where the impact is greatest. College Affordable, Inc. is a newly formed organization with no past or present activities.in the future, College Affordable, Inc. will raise donations from individuals, corporations, and grants and then will spend 85 - 90 percent of its time and resources to provide educational services as a free resource for students and their families and provide personalized support to students with the greatest need to navigate the financial aid process, which is in line with the mission of the organization. We will partner with schools and non-profit organizations to provide online webinars on timely topics such as completing the financial aid applications (fafsa), student loan options, understanding financial aid awards, and financial literacy education for students. Families, high school guidance counselors, and non-profit partners may call or email for answers to financial aid questions. Personalized support with completing financial aid or student loan applications may be arranged with a partner school or nonprofit organization for students identified as qualifying based on adverse personal circumstances.college Affordable, Inc. Intends to raise money from philanthropists and from industry adjacent services providers. Expenses will be for fundraising and administrative expenses as well as execution of our programs to provide education and support to schools, non-profit organizations and families.
