Scholarship Matters A Parent's Guide to College and Private Scholarships

This book, and accompanying CD, is a culmination of over twenty years of research and experience in preparing families for the college application and funding process. Unlike other books that list scholarship organizations and eligibility requirements, Scholarship Matters equips your student to honestly, comprehensively, and persuasively demonstrate eligibility to college admission boards and scholarship committee members who scrutinize applications more thoroughly now than ever before in an effort to both identify fraudulent applications and select those candidates with the most evidence of promise. Whether your children are pre-teens or in high school, whether they school at home, online, or in a classroom, and no matter what your income or their grade point average, this book is for you! Scholarship Matters empowers families to achieve the goal of a college education without the burden of debt. Fifty per cent of the purchase price of this book goes directly to charity.
