    The HK Couch Ep. 7 featuring J. Cole - The College Playbook

    Welcome to The HK Couch where we delve into the inspiring stories and impactful work of individuals shaping our communities! Today, we have the privilege of speaking with Jerome Cole aka J. Cole who is the Director of College Counseling at the McLean School of Maryland. During this episode J. Cole breaks down what students actually need to know about getting into college and making it affordable. From decoding the admissions process to understanding financial aid, scholarships, and FAFSA, this conversation is all about turning confusion into clarity. We also dive into the differences between HBCUs and PWIs, including academic culture, campus support, affordability, and how to decide which environment is the best fit for you. Whether you’re a first-generation student, someone who thinks college might be out of reach financially, or a parent trying to support a student through the process, this episode offers real, practical advice and reassurance that college is possible—even if you don’t think you have the money. This is a must-listen for students, parents, and anyone who wants honest, no-fluff guidance on college access and opportunity.
