This book is an excellent resource for adults, especially full-time working adults, preparing to return to or start higher education programs. The author does a wonderful job of helping potential students "shop around" for the schools and programs that will meet specific goals of each student. Admissions recruiters' job is to sell the school they work for, this book helps shoppers look at options available in a non-bias way.
Explaining the difference in accreditation, in degrees, certificates, continuing education, and training programs, traditional and non-traditional, format and delivery of courses, etc. is extremely helpful for individuals to discern the differences between the countless options available to adult learners.

This was featured in the Boston Globe in a section for adults going back to school. I found it very concise and useful!

This is a book for a student who just finished HIgh school at 20 yrs. old like I did or have gotten a GED. My mom says it's never too late to learn and go to college. YOu could be young or old and still earn a diploma late in HIgh School and a GED.
