 too much fat November 19, 2002
23 out of 27 found this review helpful
This book has some good information but you have to wade through the fat to get at it. It may be written mainly for aspiring college students, but I feel it is not complete enough or deep enough for parents. There are many other better books out there on the subject (notably Fiancial Aid for Dummies and Discounts and Deals at the Nations best 360 colleges).
 Will Get Your Kids Scholarships August 21, 2002
14 out of 15 found this review helpful
Hello everyone,I just wanted to write in and recommend this book. It is great for those parents who want the best for their kids and who want to help them take some initiative with scholarships. This book helped get my son off the couch, and he's already won several scholarships. Now that's what I call a gift for parents! :)
Step by Step Instructions August 18, 2002
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
As a parent who has been frustrated by the headache that is college financial aid, this book was a breath of fresh air. It lays it all out for you, step by step. Goes over the big picture, how to search for scholarships, how to strategize, how to fill out all the forms, how to get great recommendation letters...pretty much everything. It was terrific for my son, who is a sophomore in college, but would also be very useful for parents with younger kids.
Informative Book August 18, 2002
6 out of 8 found this review helpful
Okay, who doesn't need money for college? I'm currently a sophomore at NYU and I wouldn't be here if I wasn't able to win college scholarships. I treated it seriously and read virtually every book on the subject. The $25,000+ in scholarships I won really changed my life. Let me say that 'How to Go to College Almost for Free' is really, really good. Informative, clear, and actually funny. This book has become pretty much the "bible" for scholarship seekers.
College Education: Almost Free, Totally Free April 29, 2002
I got this book and went through it. It was great. I didn't know how many opportunities were available for my kids. I recommend "How To Go To College..." by Benjamin R. Kaplan if you are interested in an ALMOST FREE college education. I also recommend that you read "West Point: Character, Leadership,.." by Norman Thomas Remick if you are interested in a TOTALLY FREE college education.
