- What are the rules for divorced or separated parents; and for business owners.
- and much, much, more.

These seminars are held periodically in high schools, colleges, public libraries, churches, hotels, adult education courses, PTA organizations, etc. These seminars are general in nature, but every attendee is eligible for a FREE personal consultation in their home to cover their individual college funding situation. This personal consultation normally costs $150 for a non-seminar attendee.
Q: Are their any charges for S4CF services? A: Yes; after the free seminar & consultation, if the parents desire S4CF to handle their college funding situation for them there is a fee based on the level of service they want performed.
Q: When should a parent attend one of these seminars? A: No later than their child’s junior year in high school but ideally before the end of the sophomore year in high school.
