Sallie Mae Offers Financial Aid Analysis on Web Site
By Ronald Roach
This spring, college-bound high-school seniors will be getting financial aid award letters from the schools at which they have been accepted. While these letters may seem straightforward, students and parents should be taking a close look at their contents, experts say.
The Student Loan Marketing Association, commonly known as Sallie Mae, is reaching out to assist families in this important phase of the college process with wiredscholar.com, Sallie Mae’s comprehensive online “going-to-college” Web site resource. The Web site offers an Online Award Analyzer to help evaluate financial aid award packages and provide resources for families looking for additional funds.
