The Essential Estate Planning Documents Every College Student Should Have

Healthcare Power of Attorney

This document allows your child to grant you the authority to make healthcare decisions on their behalf should they be incapacitated.

Financial Power of Attorney

A Financial Power of Attorney gives you the ability to assist in managing the finances of your student.

HIPAA Authorization Form

Medical information is highly confidential. With a HIPAA Authorization Form, you can access the medical information of your child from their doctor or provider.

FERPA Authorization Form

Worried about your child’s progress in school? A FERPA Authorization Form gives the university or college the ability to disclose education records to you on your child’s behalf.

Last Will and Testament

In the case that the unthinkable happens, having a Will in place allows your child to decide where their assets go.
