College on the horizon?
How to bring it within easy reach
Finding the necessary funds for college can be a daunting challenge, especially for the uninitiated. This month, our financial professionals discuss college savings plans, loans, scholarships and grants - and where to find additional information.
We also offer tips to help teens obtain basic financial skills before they move away from home. Here, we discuss the advantages of joint checking accounts for parents and teens, and what it takes to build a good credit score.
When saving for college, our professionals recommend setting up savings plans as early as possible. Then make regular contributions with whatever you can afford.
