The problem today is that many students experience financial hardship after college because their expectations of what opportunities their degree will bring are unrealistic. With 55% of students relying on student loan funding (65% for four-year college students) many students don’t accurately forecast their sobering future balance sheets. GrassHopper addresses this problem by providing a unique opportunity for young adults to develop and test their collegiate and young-life plan against the realities of the marketplace. It is through accurate and realistic data, and managed expectations that these young adults can successfully embark on their new lives without falling into some of the pitfalls of matching post-college expectations with post-college costs.
