      Book Overview

      In the last 20 years, tuition has increased by a factor of more than 200 percent, which is 3 times the increase in earned income of the average family. It takes from 25 to 30 percent of a family's yearly after tax earnings to pay for a single child's college education. Utilizing their access to college counseling, admissions, and financial aid professionals at colleges and universities across the country, this father and son team have developed a program to make paying for college manageable. They enlighten, motivate, and encourage students and their parents to follow a set of 10 principles designed to help families get a handle on saving and financing a college education. Their mission is to reassure and to help families of every income level and at every stage of preparation to plan a strategy for paying for college.

      Clear Thinking on Financial Aid

      By Thriftbooks.com User,

      With impressive clarity, the Greenes have de-mystified one of the denser elements of going to college. As a counselor to a group of college-bound students who require substantial financial aid, I have rarely seen a guide that packs as much useful information into such a short space. Especially helpful at the book's end is a calendar with the critical deadlines for applying for aid. The Greenes, with decades of experience...
