Tuition Resources was created to guide students and their families through all of the financial aspects of the college process. Our goal is to take the stress out of paying for college by offering creative solutions to make college affordable.

Ellen Kaufman, the founder and president of Tuition Resources, has over 30 years of experience as an accounting and tax professional. As a CPA and CFP® , Ellen helps families pay for college by emphasizing affordability, cost-effectiveness, and “financial fit.” Ellen is also a Certified College Financial Consultant (CCFC), a designation held by fewer than 50 practitioners in the U.S. This certification has enabled Ellen to stand out in the college financial aid planning and advising industry.

Ellen holds a Bachelor of Science in Accountancy from The George Washington University and a Masters of Science in Accounting with a Tax concentration from the University of Virginia. Her education and skills were beneficial in sending her own three children to private universities.
