Tuition & Financial Aid
Much has changed since the days when private schools were seen as elite institutions offering resources and help to only privileged families. In the past, many parents just assumed that they couldn't afford to place their child in the kind of social and academic environment which would help them grow into successful adults. However, more families are discovering that they can give their young adult the gift of a private education in an aftercare setting for about the same cost as a monthly car payment.
Thanks to a growing number of private secondary school student loan programs, plenty of middle-class parents are able to provide help for their young adult or teenager without breaking the bank. In some instances payments can be deferred for up to 12 months and loans have no prepayment penalty or cancellation fees.
You can balance the cost of secondary education with the need to save for college tuition by taking advantage of education loans that offer affordable interest rates and allow you to spread the costs over a reasonable amount of time - in some cases as many as ten or even fifteen years.
By using these new loan programs, you'll be able to give your teen the help they need to continue their recovery and earn academic credit without sacrificing the financial well-being of your family to do so. Better yet, you will also be increasing your child's chances of continuing their successful college careers while they learn how to manage their emotions and behaviors.
