College Financial Planning Process for Families
Why Families Trust Our College Funding Process
Clarity. Strategy. Financial Freedom for Your Child’s College Journey:
At Clark College Funding, we believe success starts with clarity, continues through strategy, and ends with financial freedom.
🎓That’s why every family we serve follows our DREAM, LAUNCH, and BANK Framework — a system designed to take the stress out of college planning, save families $40K–$60K, and help students get into their best-fit college.
🧠 How It Works
The DREAM, LAUNCH, and BANK Framework
DREAM → Clarity first—define goals, priorities, and a tailored college list.
LAUNCH→ Execution—craft standout applications with compelling essays and résumés.
BANK → Financial success—maximize scholarships and negotiate financial aid offers.
✅ Why It Works:
We address the root causes of college planning stress:
lack of clarity, ineffective execution, and financial uncertainty — so families can move forward with confidence.
✅ Proven Results:
Families working with us routinely save $40,000–$60,000 and secure acceptances at colleges that fit their child’s academic, social, and financial goals.
🛤️ The Three Phases of Success: DREAM→LAUNCh→BANK

Start by clarifying your child’s academic, social, and financial priorities for college success.
🔵 R: Research Options and Scholarships
We build a personalized college list and identify hidden scholarship opportunities using proprietary tools.
🔵 E: Execute Reflection and Assessments
Students discover their strengths, values, and passions through guided exercises to inform smart college choices.
🔵 A: Analyze Priorities and Challenges
We proactively address academic needs, extracurricular commitments, and financial factors to avoid obstacles.
