Focusing on the challenges to brick and mortar colleges by online learning in the midst of the Coronavirus

Getting Money For College is a program that helps families save money on college tuition by teaching them that tuition is negotiable, and then teaching them how to negotiate. Over the past 15 years, Joel Peck, the founder of Getting Money For College, has helped hundreds of families save over $1mil in total tuition.

Joel has taught seminars for parents of high school students and the NYS Society of CPAs and has been interviewed on cable TV about his expertise and the assistance he provides to parents. His advice is sought after by parents, other CPAs and financial planning professionals.

Joel has been featured on CBS NewsRadio, NY Times and Yahoo Finance. Follow Getting Money For College on Facebook.

In March 2020, this Blog began focusing on the challenges to brick and mortar colleges in the midst of the Coronavirus.
