Fenderson, Seventeen’s College Columnist and Author, Seventeen’s Guide to Getting into College “This book is a must read in an era of rising tuition and falling admission rates. O’Shaughnessy offers good advice with blessed clarity and brevity.” —Jay Mathews, Washington Post Education Writer and Columnist “I would recommend any parent of a college-bound student read The College Solution.” —Kal Chany, Author, The Princeton Review’s Paying for College Without Going Broke “The College Solution goes beyond other guidebooks in providing an abundance of information about how to afford college, in addition to how to approach the selection process by putting the student first.” —Martha “Marty” O’Connell, Executive Director, Colleges That Change Lives “Lynn O’Shaughnessy always focuses on what’s in the consumer’s best interest, telling families how to save money and avoid making costly mistakes.” —Mark Kantrowitz, Publisher, FinAid.org and Author, FastWeb College Gold “An antidote to the hype and hysteria about getting in and paying for college! O’Shaughnessy has produced an excellent overview that demystifies the college planning process for students and families.” —Barmak Nassirian, American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers For millions of families, the college planning experience has become extremely stressful.

In The College Solution, top personal finance journalist Lynn O’Shaughnessy presents an easy-to-use roadmap to finding the right college program (not just the most hyped) and dramatically reducing the cost of college, too. Forget the rankings! Discover what really matters: the quality and value of the programs your child wants and deserves. O’Shaughnessy uncovers “industry secrets” on how colleges actually parcel out financial aid—and how even “average” students can maximize their share. Learn how to send your kids to expensive private schools for virtually the cost of an in-state public college...and how promising students can pay significantly less than the “sticker price” even at the best state universities. No other book offers this much practical guidance on choosing a college...and no other book will save you as much money! • Secrets your school’s guidance counselor doesn’t know yet The surprising ways colleges have changed how they do business • Get every dime of financial aid that’s out there for you Be a “fly on the wall” inside the college financial aid office • U.S. News & World Report: clueless about your child Beyond one-size-fits-all rankings: finding the right program for your teenager • The best bargains in higher education Overlooked academic choices that just might be perfect for you

The guide features copies of my admissions essay, writing supplement, and activities resume that I used to apply to college the fall of my senior year. Get advice on all the secrets of the admissions process from start to finish. ""I can't believe that a 17 year-old has written a college admissions books that is so well-written, clear and accurate. No wonder USC jumped at the chance to have her become their student. My sense of things is that mostly parents read college admissions books; high school students just don't want to take the time. Given what she says and how she says it, I truly believe that teens will rush to read "You Got Into Where?" It is well worth their time."" -Marjorie Hansen Shaevitz Author, adMISSION POSSIBLE

Earn a Debt-Free College Degree! by Cyrus Vanover Pdf

Earn An Accredited College Degree Without Student Loans! Not a day goes by that reports of the ever-increasing costs of higher education are making the news. In order to earn that coveted credential we have to take on a mountain of debt to pay for it, right? And in the society we now live in if you don't have that coveted credential, it can be very difficult to get started in a good-paying career. What's a person to do? Good news...You don't have to take on a mountain of debt to earn an accredited college degree. In fact, it's even possible to earn a college degree for free if you know how the system works. And there are many ways to earn inexpensive college credits that colleges and universities don't want you to know about. Why do they want this information kept secret? Simple...because they are raking in the cash from your tuition money and they don't want the gravy train to stop. Earn A Debt-Free College Degree! is a book that explodes the myth that earning a college degree requires a lot of money (and a big student loan that takes years to pay off). The book shows you how to earn an accredited bachelor's degree for anywhere from free to no more than $15,000(and half this amount for associate's degrees). The best part about the strategies the book presents is that they do not rely on scholarships. That's the major difference between this book and all the other books on the market that claim they can help you lower your tuition bills. Nearly all of those books talk about scholarships. These books make it sound like businesses and organizations have scholarship money just lying around and they are just looking for someone to give it to. It all sounds oh so easy, doesn't it? There's just one problem with this...thousands of other students have read those same books and they are all applying for the same scholarships you are. It takes many hours of work to search scholarship databases, fill out all those applications, and write essays. And then it becomes a waiting game to see if a scholarship committee picks you out of hundreds of applicants. You don't have to worry about such an uncertain way to pay for college. There is a better way. Earn A Debt-Free College Degree! presents simple strategies that nearly anyone can implement. You don't have to be a stellar student with amazing grades, either. Your previous academic achievements won't matter. Here are just a few things you'll discover in the book: - Learn how to obtain textbooks for pennies on the dollar - Discover more than a dozen colleges and universities in the U.S. that don't charge tuition to any students who are accepted (and five of these don't charge room and board, either) - Find out how you can earn college credit that is accepted by nearly 1,900 college and universities in the United States by taking and passing one single multiple-choice exam. Most schools will accept up to 30 credit hours into a degree program from this type of credit. And it gets even better. It's possible to earn 30 credit hours with this strategy for under $1,000. - Discover how you can earn a four-year degree in only three years or even two years in some cases. - Learn how you can turn previously completed training courses through your job, volunteer organization, and others into usable college credit. Most colleges and universities accept this type of credit but too few know about it. - Discover the amazing educational benefits available for military personnel (either full-time, Guard, or reserves personnel). Learn how you can go from zero college credits all the way to a doctorate on the government's tab. - And many others. We've become accustomed to the idea that earning a college degree is something that is very expensive. It's time to destroy that myth. Let this book show you the way.
