Paying for Higher Education...

Pay for college without sacrificing your retirement. 


 If you’re concerned about paying for college and maintaining your retirement savings—or if you’ve been told you make too much money for financial aid—this is for you... Keep reading. 


Plan Higher Ed has joined forces with College Funding Secrets.


College Funding Secrets is a game-changing, proven formula that blends student positioning, asset management, and tax strategy. This isn't a cookie-cutter solution. It’s a comprehensive, hands-on approach for families who are ready to learn, implement, and take action. 


Lance Morgan is my partner at College Funding Secrets.

John Wooden

The journey to higher education... With a tour guide.

 Attending higher educational institutions is more expensive than ever before and it is time to think "outside the box."  Regardless of your financial status, no one looks for a bad investment.  


Hi, I'm Julie Balogh. 

I am a mom of two teenagers, a professional educational consultant, a college funding strategist, and owner of PlanHigherEd.com, Julie Balogh LLC. With a deep affinity for return on investment, I tend to view planning for higher education as a strategic game of chess rather than a right of passage families must endure. 


I help families navigate options, an alphabet of acronyms, financial strategy, and the calendar of tasks along the way. As you embark on what may be the largest investment of your life, please allow me to help make it a bit more manageable.


Educational options are endless, but the ones with a good return on investment (ROI) might require a different perspective, and a bit of strategic planning.  Let us help you plan for higher ed - so you can relax a bit during the process and enjoy the journey!  Besides, isn't your time best invested elsewhere rather than figuring out the higher ed matrix that we have already mastered?
