    COLLEGE FINANCIAL AID STRATEGIES
   
    1) Find as many scholarship/grant programs for which you qualify
    as is possible. See below for details.
    2) Try to avoid taking out a loan, but if you do, a home equity
    is best since you can deduct up to $100,000 of the interest on
    income taxes.
    3) Attend a cheaper college freshman & sophomore year, then
    transfer to a more expensive (presumably more prestigious) school-
    your diploma will bear the name of the college you graduate from.
    4) Consider attending an in-state school, since these rates are
    generally less expensive. In addition, many institutions offer
    special tuition rates for children of alumni.
    5) High school students may qaulify for Advanced Placement classes
    which may allow them to skip some basic freshman year courses and
    possibly save the equivalent of one semester, or one-eighth of the
    cost of the college education.
