What past clients have said about working with JVA Investments
“I had been told we make too much money to qualify for help. . . NOT SO.”
Jennifer - Lewiston, ID
“I thought our high school counselor would help us through the financial aid maze. Unfortunately, too many students and not enough time is what he faced. The Power of Working with Jonathan taught us step by step what we could do to supplement what he could do to help us. Working together worked best for us.”
William - Denver, CO
“With my older son Jason, who was already in college, I had to borrow from my 401K to pay in-state college costs. Since we joined the program, we got Katie into the private school she wanted, and got money for Jason we should have received in the first place. As a single parent, I really appreciate the time and efforts of the Circle of Neighbors staff. We couldn’t have done it without them.”
Donna - Waco, TX
“The FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) form was a nightmare. They sent it back to us four times and we were ready to give up. The FAFSA completion guide got us PELL GRANT money that opened the door to many choices of colleges for my students. We got our value from that one service alone. Our family contribution went from over $10,000 per year to less than $2,000!”
David - Omaha, NE
“I’ve had dozens of clients call on me to complete their financial aid forms each year. I usually suggest the school help them. After seeing what they did for our student Kent, I realize that a college cannot be as objective as a family really needs. I now refer my clients to Jonathan so they can find out what strategies will lower their EFC (Expected Family Contribution). I wish I would have known about this program years ago.”
Peter - Albuquerque, NM
“Our oldest daughter, Michelle, was told by her school we would do fine on our own financially, because she was a 4.0 GPA student. Five years and $27,600 in student loan debt later, we will not make the same mistakes with our next three students. Don’t wait, like we did, to learn the hard way. It’s never too early to prepare for one of the most important parental responsibilities.”
Cindy Bellevue, WA
“As a Real Estate Broker, I would never consider recommending the major purchase of a home without professional advice. College education for our family will cost more than our home. We can’t afford to take chances with these important choices when it means our children’s future. To avoid these chances, we counsel with Jonathan Varelas”
