Pace Communications, the world's largest private custom publishing company, will expand its portfolio of work for Wachovia Corporation with a new magazine for college-bound students and their parents.

CollegeReady provides valuable information on federal financial aid, college savings plan options, scholarship strategies, identify theft on campus and much more.

With content targeted to both parents and teens, the magazine addresses questions that arise in the college application and decision-making process such as navigating financial-aid applications, finding scholarships and grants, and choosing the perfect college.

The publication also features the advice of College Parents of America and includes a profile of Teach for America, the organization that encourages young people to teach in high-need schools. Wachovia, a leading provider of federally sponsored student loans, recently was named a founding national partner for Teach for America, honoring the bank's donations to help the program expand.

CollegeReady is being mailed to high school guidance counselors around the country, and is available at select Wachovia Financial Centers.
