About the Book
College costs are straining every family except the richest. Most financial aid goes to the neediest families. The middle class typically doesn't qualify for need-based financial aid, even though most can't afford to pay cash for college and their salaries haven't allowed them to save enough to cover all costs. If these families are trying to put more than one child through college, the challenges are exponential.
If you've been asking how your child can receive a quality education even though you can't pay today's college tuition out of pocket, The Complete Guide to Paying for College is the answer. This step-by-step guide includes actionable tips to save on education costs and the many living expenses, room, board, books, activities that apply to the first year and beyond.
Leah Ingram, a money-saving expert and parent of two college students reveals the insider tricks to pay for college, including:
- How to find bona fide scholarships, not spam and scams.
- Where parents can work to receive tuition benefits.
- The pros and cons of earning college credits before graduating high school.
- Which schools give out the most merit aid, even if you're not a rocket scientist.
My Take on the Book
As someone that works with students going to college, there is always room for additional resources that will assist students and parents with making good decisions about college and for knowing ways to save and find money for college. This book is a practical guide that shares some great hints, tips and more on what you can do to make college affordable. I loved how the book explores ways that you can start saving money through things you do in high school, as well as exploring the myriad of different college scholarships that are available too. This book provides you with amazing practical solutions that will assist you in finding money for your own child. If you have a child that will go to college someday, this is a book you will not want to miss!
