MOAA National Webinar: Can My Military Family Afford College?
Start Time: 14:00
End Time: 15:00

Do you have a strategy to pay for your child's college education?

 

You might need one: The average in-state student living on campus at a public institution will pay more than $27,000 per year in tuition, according to the Education Data Initiative. A student at a private, nonprofit university will pay more than double that, averaging nearly $59,000 per year.
 
Even if a student is entitled to Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits, parents still need a strategy – a plan to save for any remaining costs and to maximize entitlements, especially for households with multiple children looking to continue their education.
 
MOAA can help, and not just via the MOAA Scholarship Fund. Join Lila Quintiliani, MOAA's program director for Financial and Benefits Education/Counseling, and Kate Horrell, a personal finance educator who is an expert in the Post-9/11 GI Bill and Yellow Ribbon Program, as they explore topics like:

  • Reviewing options for college savings (even if you plan to use Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits).
  • Ensuring a school is the right "financial fit."
  • Understanding the basics of the Post-9/11 GI Bill, and how to best use your entitlement.
  • Finding scholarships, loans, and other avenues of support.

 
Whether your scholars-to-be are in high school or you're planning the long-term financial future for your growing family, this webinar can help you get past the sticker shock of college and craft a sound strategy to meet your educational goals.
