156: How to Pay for College with Scholarships using the Scholarship System

In this episode, we’re talking about how to use scholarships to pay for college. We’ve all heard the horror stories of those who graduate with hundreds of thousands of dollars in student debt. Many of my clients are faced with the very real tradeoff between making sure their kids graduate with no (or minimal) debt and funding their own retirement. To make matters worse, there’s so much conflicting information around the topic of financial aid that it can be completely overwhelming. It takes practice to learn the difference between a marketing scam and a real opportunity, and few students discover how many incredible scholarships are out there for the taking. If you’re trying to make sense of it all and can’t figure out how you (or your kids) will pay for college or university, today’s episode of Profit Boss® Radio is for you. I’m joined by Jocelyn Paonita Pearson, founder of The Scholarship System. Over the course of her college career, Jocelyn secured over $126,000 in college scholarships, graduated with zero student loans, and even received overage checks to cover her expenses. And now, she’s teaching others how to do the same. Her 6-step system for finding scholarships has helped families secure over seven figures in scholarships! So, are you ready to learn how to avoid crushing student debt, find scholarships you never knew existed, and learn how to actually win them? Then you don’t want to miss this episode.
