Michael L. Mathews
As a parent of three children, I understand the concerns parents face when it comes to college selection, admission, and funding. No, I did not have the right answers for my children and made several mistakes costing our family over $20,000 of gift-aid money offered by the college by simply missing a deadline. We paid far more than necessary for their education by not having a plan and not knowing the right strategies. I like to say now … “you don’t know what you don’t know.” And that saying was true in our case. I am committed to helping high school students and families avoid what happened to us. There is a better way – a proven program that works.
My business experience is broad spectrum which includes working in surgery, commercial asset management, an automotive detailing business, and the formation of a charity for children called Golf Klubz Fore Kidz, a California Nonprofit Corporation. College Funding Advisor Group is the logical next step consistent with my entrepreneurial spirit and interest. My goal is to help all students wanting to go to college achieve their dream. There are many qualified students who need assistance with the payment of our fee. Someday I plan to use donations made to the nonprofit to make this happen.

Our Parent Company
Since 1993, College Funding Solutions, Inc. (CFS) has been recognized as a national leader in assisting students and their parents prepare and pay for college.
At CFS, we understand the overwhelming task that high school students are facing when it comes to making that all-important transition from high school to college. We further understand the concern parents face when it comes to paying for their student's higher education.
We use our years of hands-on experience, specifically designed software, and proven admission & funding strategies to help make the student's entire college experience much more rewarding and often-times easier on the budget. Please note that our software programs have been developed by CFS over the years and are not available to the general public.
CFS also eases the family’s apprehension when it comes to completing and filing the necessary paperwork. When working with CFS, there is no longer the worry of missing crucial deadlines or the fear of making costly errors on your admission and/or funding applications.
CFS has developed and employs many funding strategies that will, in many cases, increase the amount and type of funding a student is eligible to receive.
CFS completes, endorses, and electronically files the complicated Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for our clients. In addition, CFS does an analysis of the family’s current financial situation and offers any suggestions that may increase the student’s eligibility for funding prior to the completion and submission of the FAFSA.
CFS also assists the student and parents in the completion of the even-more complicated CSS/Profile financial aid application that is required (in addition to the FAFSA) by a great number of colleges and universities across the country.
At CFS we keep the student’s primary goal in mind – receiving the highest quality college education at the most affordable price.
