College Affordability Toolkit -  the result of listening to our students over the years and putting together an exercise to help you make smart, informed decisions about your future. This tool should not be used exclusively in your decisions making, nor does it provide any financial advice.  The Toolkit is designed to provide a snapshot of your financial situation and the potential impact of your choices on college and career. It allows you to test a variety of scenarios and "estimate" the impact. We recommend you save various scenarios to compare. ​Please note: best displayed on laptop or desktop computer. This workbook is currently available as an Excel document. Numbers and Google Sheets versions are in development.
