Join The German International School Boston’s virtual Fast Track Information Night to learn more about the accelerated German language program for academically strong and motivated students entering grades 1-5 with little to no previous German language experience.

Do you have a curiosity about or connection to Germany, but your child doesn’t read (or even speak) any German? Are you seeking an independent school learning environment with small classes, dedicated teachers, and unique opportunities? By enrolling in GISB’s German Fast Track Program, your child will participate in Germany’s challenging academic curriculum after a year of intensive language support. 

The German International School Boston parent and student loan expert Jens Meyer will talk about financing college. Whether your children plan to study in the US or abroad, whether they are still in Kindergarten or about to graduate; it is never too early or too late to think about options to finance college. Jens will cover the current college cost trends in the US and Europe and outline both short- and long-term financing options and strategies. He will also talk about financial aid and what to watch out for when accepting college scholarships. Jens leads the credit risk, portfolio management, and collections group at Cognition Financial, one of the oldest student loan financing companies in the United States. Note: The content of the presentation is for informational purposes only and should not constitute legal, tax, investment, financial, or other advice.
