Advancing College Affordability Advising Through AI

Join us for a hands-on workshop designed for counselors and student advisors committed to strengthening how we support students and families in navigating the cost of higher education. Hosted by the Maryland Center for Collegiate Financial Wellness in partnership with the Maryland Bankers Association, this session will explore how innovative tools—including AI—can enhance affordability advising.

Participants will gain practical strategies to analyze the true cost of college, uncover hidden expenses, and guide students toward financial resilience. This collaborative experience brings together education professionals to align efforts, share insights, and elevate the impact of affordability conversations across K–12 and higher education.
