The best resource for adult students for paying for college,
By Kathy Lewis (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 501 Ways for Adult Students to Pay for College (Paperback)
There is so little information for adult students on how to go back to school. This book has it all--scholarships, financial aid strategies, credit for life experiences, tax savings and more. If you ask your financial aid office for help, they may suggest loans, but this book gives more info on how to pay besides loans. It's worth the small investment to get info that can save you on college costs.

Neutral on this one. Most of these ideas I already knew. But good for review.
