As the high school years draw to a close, nightmares about College tuitions and expenses start hounding parents and students alike. Well one could go for a scholarship but Not only is the process cumbersome but most people also don't know where to look and how to go about the process. Dr.Carol Stewart wrote "Looking for scholarships" just for folks like us. But Does it really work ?
Firstly, let me say that there are no magical shortcuts to be found in this book.Instead you will find a lot of smartly planned strategies for you the applicant to implement. Dr.stewart starts out by demystifying the entire application process. This is not good just for a newbie but also for people who shudder at the thought of dealing with piles of paperwork and confusing jargons.
Once a clear understanding seeps in, she lays out a planned disciplined process to be followed by an applicant. Thankfully she cuts out any unnecessary feel good talk,writing only solid content. The prime aim is to make you,the in-charge and unearth new scholarship avenues so that no scholarship opportunity's go by un-noticed. All you require is to take action on this step by step process that she lays out before you.
When you buy the book you also get an additional bonus in the form of her book "20 Ways to Avoid Costly College Tuition Mistakes". I found this quite informative and useful especially for people who only manage to get a partial scholarship or grant.
To summarize "looking for Scholarships" aims to be a step by step process which takes you through the whole process of applying for scholarships written by an experienced educator. Sounds promising and it is indeed. For more information click here.
