Yeah, so honestly, um, I I think that my online course is such a great tool, especially for parents who are homeschooling their kids, because they don't have the college counselor or the guidance counselor to kind of give them the step by step.
And other than that, um, the information that I share inside the course is
Going to walk them through the exact same process and

So I just want to give you guys the encouragement to feel like
Parents, you can do this and you can help your kids and I commend you for for spending the time to teach your children and it's wonderful.
Yeah, I've never specifically heard of a school who will ever say that it's a direct disadvantage.
So the only thing that's different is that colleges, um, you know, they might have a relationship with schools, they might know more about
