Don’t let the cost of applying to college get in your way
The fees involved with applying to college might cost some families nearly $5,000, but it doesn’t have to. If the cost of taking the SAT, submitting the CSS Profile and applying to multiple schools is standing in your way, you might be eligible for fee waivers.
You can also skip the expensive test prep courses by taking advantage of free tutoring opportunities in your neighborhood or high school. Talk to your high school college adviser to learn about other options available to you.
