Expert College Planning and Funding Strategies — For Every Family, at Every Stage 

College is more expensive, more competitive, and more confusing than ever. Genesis College Strategies helps families across the country navigate admissions, maximize financial aid, and pay less for college — with a team of 30 advisors and over 15 years of experience doing exactly that.

We have programs starting as early as first grade. The earlier you start, the more money you save.

And if your financial advisor told you to open a 529 and call it a college plan — there's a good chance that's not the whole story. Real college financial strategy goes much deeper, and most families never get it.

Why Families Choose Genesis College Strategies

  • We Start Where Others Don't
    Most college planners wait until junior year. We work with families starting as early as first grade, because the financial moves that matter most happen years before your student ever sets foot on a campus.
  • We Go Way Beyond the 529
    A savings account isn't a college strategy. We analyze your full financial picture — taxes, cash flow, retirement, and aid eligibility — and build a real plan around all of it.
  • We Reduce What You Actually Pay
    We calculate your Student Aid Index, identify legal ways to reduce it, evaluate every financial aid award letter, and negotiate when offers fall short. Most families leave significant money on the table. We don't let that happen.
  • We Handle Admissions Too 
    Getting into the right school and paying the right price are two sides of the same coin. Our team guides your student through the entire admissions process — essays, applications, test prep, scholarships, and more.
  • A Team of 30. Not a Solo Act
    With about 30 professionals and hundreds of years of combined experience, we've helped thousands of families across the country since 2010. 
  • On-Demand Workshops Available
    Not ready for full concierge service? Start with one of our workshops and get insight into the college funding and planning process at your own pace. You'll never get any pressure from us...

greg stevens
Genesis College Strategies was founded by Greg Stevens, a financial advisor and college planning expert since 2004. After watching countless families stumble through one of the most expensive and complicated processes of their lives with little to no real guidance, Greg built something different — a team-based approach that combines deep financial strategy with hands-on admissions support.

Greg is a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, a Black Belt, a competitive mountain biker, and a self-described car guy and cat lover. He knows the college process inside and out, and his team is unparalleled.

That team numbers about 30 advisors and professionals — college counselors, financial strategists, admissions experts, and scholarship specialists — with hundreds of years of combined experience and thousands of families helped across the country since 2010.
