And there\u2019s a better way to do it.\n\nDuring each episode, Aaron Greene, Founder and CEO at College Liftoff, and his staff of counselors help students and families reduce the cost of higher education, navigate the application process, and make well-rounded decisions by evaluating the modern metrics of education.\n\nCollege Liftoff emerged from Aaron\u2019s desire to help students learn to treat education like an investment, accounting for the career, academic, and financial factors that shape this decision. He has also forged a debt control calculation to set student loan debt limits for each student. College Liftoff opened its first office in Columbus, Ohio in May 2009.","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/39035816-75df-49b0-9148-c14a64fc0c9a/A1IKqAcvKAd0KhAAj6OdAQst.jpg"}
