Preparing for a college education begins when your children are still young. In a financial sense, planning early for college is practical and sensible because it means you will have time to grow your savings. Encouraging your children to value academic achievement while supporting other aspects of their personal growth is a well-rounded approach to raising a child.
Physical and Social Aspects of Sports Involvement
Passionate involvement in sports and physical pursuits is an important aspect in children’s lives. In very young children, sports activities help develop motor skills, hand-eye coordination and physical stamina. Older children involved in sports learn self-discipline, self-control and time management.
Affording College
As your children enter high school and get closer to facing the college admissions phase, affording a college education becomes a major source of stress for parents. Tuition and school fees at private universities have risen by 179 percent in the last 20 years while in-state tuition for public universities increased by 296 percent in the same period.
Faced with the reality that college costs will continue to rise over time, parents are scrambling to find a competitive advantage that will help their college-bound kids gain admission to the college of their choice. It is often up to the parents to address the affordability issue. Scholarships, grants and loans are the top three financing options.
Athletic Scholarships
Athletic scholarships are often overlooked or underestimated as potential funds sources for college students. This may be because students have to demonstrate outstanding ability and an exemplary track record in their chosen sport, which means a lifetime of preparation starting with rudimentary lessons as soon as they are old enough.
