  • Keep an eye on your child’s study habits and grades – stay involved.

  • Encourage your child to take Advanced Placement or other challenging classes.

  • Take another look at your financial situation, and be sure you’re on the right track to pay for college.

  • Ask your employer whether scholarships are available for employee’s children.
