Senior Vice President, Bank of America (NYSE: 52BAC ) at Newark, Delaware, took a look at the application process — with its mountains of options, paperwork and opaque admissions criteria — and wasn’t quite sure what to do with it all. Then she sees an employee perk offered by the company: “College Coaching.” The program not only helped her daughter Kaydria Boyer make a list of target schools, but also provided essay feedback and provided financial aid tips. Outcome: She applied Accepted almost everywhere, including the winner LSU. “Not only was she accepted, but she received a substantial scholarship,” Rosenberg said. “We would never have been on our map if LSU hadn’t been on their list, and I don’t know that she would have gotten the scholarship without their support and feedback.” This is an interesting employee perk, in an era of “big resignation” and “quiet resignation”.

Potentially, making more thoughtful college choices could save money over a longer time frame – Not just four years of a bachelor’s degree, but years of student debt afterward. “People don’t really understand the full cost of college, it’s employers One way to help employees ensure they are making choices they can really afford,” said EBRI’s Copeland. One last thought: When When your college coach helps narrow down potential institutions—Rosenberg’s daughter received three lists of likely-accepting, likely-accepting, and “stretch” schools—remember to let your child guide the process.
