Product Description

Completely revised with updated descriptions, contact information, websites, and available monies, this guide to financing higher education is the only resource students need to fund their pursuit of knowledge. Balancing detailed explanations with real-life examples and practical resources, the featured topics include finding and winning scholarships, requesting a reassessment from colleges for more financial aid, maximizing assistance from state and federal governments, taking advantage of educational tax breaks, and benefiting from government-subsidized student loans. Creative strategies—such as starting profitable dorm-room enterprises, trading tuition costs for volunteer service, and canceling debts with loan repayment programs—help students find extra money when more traditional routes are exhausted. The provided tips are designed for students of all ages and levels and their parents.

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes paying for college seem less like a chore!, August 25, 2008
By Stanford Alum (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This book is easy to digest because the information is presented in short, easy to read and easy to follow nuggets. The tips are very useful and give a lot of great ideas on how to pay for college including scholarships, financial aid, tax savings, saving for college and saving money while you're in college. The authors present some creative ways on how to pay for college that I never would have thought of on my own. A lot of other books are very dense, difficult to read and, quite frankly, boring. This book takes the bore out of paying for college!
