From deciding which schools are the best fit for you to accurately completing applications to reviewing financial aid awards, we have the knowledge and experience to put your mind at ease through the process.

College-bound students and families are busy enough as it is without having to worry about someone else’s schedule. Our financial aid consultants can work around your schedule and offer the individual attention you won’t receive from a college financial aid officer.

We have over 25 years experience with helping college students and families save money on college. When it comes to unique financial situations, we’ve seen it all.

Navigating the college-bound journey can be stressful for the whole family. At GK2S we offer you resources to help you make confident and effective decisions each step of the way. We help make the transition to college less stressful.

We have found that students benefit most when their journey towards college is thoughtfully navigated starting as early as 8th or 9th grade. Through our workshops and private consulting, we can educate families on:

Selecting colleges to optimize scholarships & financial aid that best fit a student’s credentials
SAT and ACT test scheduling & suggest prep strategies
Writing compelling essays for scholarships
Interview skills
Application tips and strategies
Scholarship preparation
Understanding the financial aid process
Create profiles for scholarship portals
Clean-up personal social media content
Much, much more!

Death, is just like taxes, is inevitable, although most people may not be keen to dwell on it. But ensuring that you have the right financial resources in place, including life insurance, is important if you have loved ones who depend on your income. Life insurance can help cover funeral and burial expenses, pay off lingering debts, and make managing day-to-day living expenses less burdensome for those you leave behind.

Home Buyers

Your student loan debt affects whether you can buy a house, in both direct and indirect ways.

Did you know:

Student loan debt may increase your debt-to-income ratio, affecting your ability to qualify for a mortgage or the rate you are able to get.
Missing a student loan payment can even lower your credit score.
A deferment or forbearance status can affect your chances of applying for a home

Let us help you get your loans on the right repayment plan before applying for your home loan.
