Over the last few years, as college costs have dramatically increased, more people have expressed great concern over funding their children’s college education without sacrificing their retirement savings plan in the process. With four-year college costs ranging between $52,000- $132,000 (per child), paying for college is a legitimate concern.
However, the Belvoir Federal Credit Union has some great news. Through a new online college planning service, you can now help yourself solve the college funding challenge – whether your income is $50,000 or $500,000.
An analogy for this exclusive online college planning service is TurboTax online. Whereas one of the primary objectives of TurboTax is to help you minimize your tax bill, one of the primary objectives of the online college planning service is to help you reduce your college bill. The practical benefit can be potentially thousands of dollars of savings on your out-of-pocket college costs.
This online service is being offered through our collaboration with Collegiate Funding Solutions (CFS). CFS is widely regarded as a premier provider of college planning solutions and is the only company that offers these solutions through a completely web-based service.
Belvoir Federal is thrilled to be one of the first credit unions in the country to offer you this unique and much needed online service. Just another great way of Belvoir being the credit union that’s for everyday people – for life.
Belvoir Federal Credit Union is covering the cost of members using this service. Obtain the special promotion code by logging into Belvoir Online Banking (BOB). After completing the online form, you will be prompted for the special promotion code. Once it’s entered, you will be able to access your report compliments of Belvoir Federal.
If you are not yet a member of Belvoir Federal Credit Union, you can still benefit from this service for only $79! In evaluating college planning services, we discovered that fees for similar expertise range between $750-$2,000. Get started now and save potentially thousands of dollars on your college costs.

Going to College Soon?
Posted on April 20, 2009And the countdown begins… until graduation. Do you know where you’re going to college?
It can be really difficult trying to sort through the applications, financial aid, registering for classes, buying textbooks, getting room assignments, and the list goes on… But, what if there was a one stop shop for all of this or better yet a preparatory guide that had all the answers listed out. Well, if this were the case, then college wouldn’t be called “the experience of a lifetime.”
But, I did find this site that seems to be a useful guide for selecting, choosing, applying, and preparing for college. Try it out, Click here.
