Welcome to the second video post in our 5-part series, originally produced in conjunction with the Ohio Society of Certified Public Accountants (OSCPA). Hosted by the their Communications Director, Gary Hunt, the discussion continues with two local college planning experts in an interview style format.

• Joe Messinger, CFP® (co-founder here at CWP)
• Susan Kannenwischer (Director of Financial Aid at Capital University)

Each video has a runtime of about 7 minutes, and touches on the main components of how to pay for college. Best of all, it’s delivered in plan English!

Note – if you missed last week’s video post on the family affordability conversation, you can check it out here!

“Start With The FAFSA”

Without further ado, here’s Video 2, “Start With The FAFSA”, in which Joe and Susan discuss FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) topics, including timeline, financial inputs from the family, and best practices.

Questions, feedback, or other ideas?
