Customer Reviews

A Great Book About Paying for College
I learned so much from this book. I have read several other books in trying to comprehend how to maximize financial aid for college but this is THE book to buy. It is published yearly, contains very relevant information for all econmic situations, and is straightforward and honest. I am helping a former student of mine apply to college and request financial aid and this book pushed me several steps ahead. I can't wait to meet with Financial Aid Officers and ask questions. I think I am more capable than ever of ensuring my student gets aid and goes to a good school.

Paying for College Without Going Broke
This book became the "Bible for financial aid", it was a great tool for guidance into the aid process. I was able to take the information and negotitate a better aid package for my son and daughter. Thanks to the Princeton review! P.S. my daughter received 9 letters of acceptance and over $14,000.00 in scholarships and grants.

The Most Important Prep Course
Parents spend thousands on SAT preparation, tens of thousands on a private school education, and then leave their assets to the tender mercies of the Board of Education. Don't allow your financial future to be savaged by the struggle to cover ever-increasing college costs. It is essential to know how your answers to the 103 questions that comprise the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) will be interpreted. I read Sallie Mae's book, which highly recommends Sallie Mae loans - calls them an "investment". They are not, they are a long-term debt. Kalman Chaney offers unbiased advice for maximizing your awards, minimizing your debt, and weighing your college choices with more tools (like cost-to-attend and likelihood of providing aid) in hand. It is an eye opening book, I ordered the annual update, too. It is a bit overwhelming, and even if you decide to hire a college funding advisor to help you with this process, you should still buy the book.
