- College Planning Center
- Uncluttered, comprehensive site by Iowa's student financial aid organization. I like its focus on financial aid regulation updates. It also offers easy access to colleges throughout Iowa.
- FAFSA (Federal Financial Aid)
- Your first step is to apply for a PIN number which will serve as your electronic signature.

- Use the search function to get the fastest access to this large site's details. Lots of good info if you are willing to dig.
- Mapping Your Future: Paying for College
- Sponsored by financial loan agencies across US. This well organized site includes links for parents and students who want quick college planning advice. Site also available in Spanish.
- PROFILE Online
- Online financial aid form (CSS) used in addition to the FAFSA by scholarship services and about 400 private colleges.
- Scholarship Scam Alert
- Latest info on scholarship scams. Terrific insights into how to be a wise consumer. Parents of juniors, be alert! Your mailboxes will be filling up soon with offers from scholarship search companies.
