Decision boundary
The VA compiles published information and does not determine eligibility, predict awards, complete attestations, or provide financial advice. Your family reviews every application and submission.

A realistic starting scenario
A family is comparing four programs with very different published costs. The assistant builds an aid research sheet with net-price links, tracks each application deadline, and organizes the offer details side by side so the family can ask better questions of each aid office.
Common questions
What families ask before starting.
Can the assistant tell us what we will receive?
No. The assistant compiles published information and calculator results. Award decisions belong to the schools and aid offices.
Do you complete the FAFSA or CSS Profile?
No. The assistant tracks deadlines and organizes published requirements. Your family completes and submits every form.
How are offers compared?
Stated amounts, terms, renewal conditions, and source links are organized side by side for family review and follow-up questions.
