| Frank Palmasani and Raina Gollins |
The Glenbard Parent Series hosted two financial aid seminars on Sept. 23. Glenbard East parent Raina Gollins attended the workshop with Frank Palmasani and shared this takeaway: "In addition to discussions about the best academic and social fit for selecting a college, families need to have discussions about the best college financial fit for the family. Do the net price calculator found on college websites to find the actual sticker price of the school. And fafsa4caster will help you find the estimated family contribution. Start early and do your research."

Ask questions and attend the college workshops to learn
