What We Do

Ensphere College Planning Service is one of the most comprehensive and most reputable college funding advisory firms in Western Pennsylvania.  Our programs have helped families with regards to college funding and the management of cash flow.

Our mission is to advise parents of college-bound high school students on all phases of college financial planning. Ensphere College Planning Services offers a unique and invaluable service in which we show parents how to make college more affordable by managing the college admissions and financial aid process on their behalf, working closely with them to identify all of the grants, loans, and scholarships available, and submitting the myriad of forms and paperwork that are associated with this process. Basically, we deliver PEACE OF MIND in knowing that everything will be done 100% accurately and on time, and that you will learn every strategy that is out there to lower your family's out-of-pocket college costs as much as legally possible! By working with us, you will ALWAYS have someone on your side who can answer your questions when you want them answered.

In addition, about 90% of those who qualify for need-based aid still have a significant Family Contribution that must come out of their pocket, plus there are those who do not qualify for aid and must totally pay for college themselves. We teach these parents how to pay for college on a tax favored basis, showing them where the best sources for money are, how to choose a college to get the best chance of funding with the least amount of loans, how to negotiate with a college to get the best financial aid package, how to make college affordable in a failing economy without relying on Wall Street or expensive private student loans, and how to set up their personal finances to be eligible for significantly more aid than they ever thought possible along with much, much, more.

Throughout the year, Ensphere College Planning Services hosts numerous FREE Workshops in local high schools and community centers for parents of college-bound high school students and follows these up by offering a FREE personal consultation to review their individual college financial situation. You can NOT afford to miss one of these workshops!!!
