TuitionCoach addresses divorce and other user-specific circumstances in the Resources section (free) and throughout the subscription features ($59). It's true that college financing can be complex for many families, and therefore require more assistance. We built TuitionCoach with the goal to provide personalized guidance similar to what you'd get with an advisor. In fact, the tools and strategies provided on the site are based on our co-founder's 18 years of college financial advisory to over 4,000 clients. We're excited to offer these services through the internet so they can become more accessible and affordable to families of college-bound kids. Thanks for the comments thus far.

(Whew!) Based on divorce statistics, I imagine that these non-traditional financial structures need to be covered, especially since these are the folks whose complexity of college financing will require more assistance.
