Paying for College: What You Need to Know When Weighing College Financial Options

In this episode of the Student-Athlete Advisors Podcast, Reid Meyer sits down with Joe Messinger of Capstone Wealth Partners to talk about one of the most important, and often overlooked, parts of the recruiting process: paying for college.

They discuss how families can evaluate true college affordability, plan for the financial side of the college search, and avoid assuming that athletic scholarships or other “sport money” will automatically make a school affordable. The goal: help families make college decisions that work academically, athletically, and financially without taking on unnecessary debt.
