Description: Cutting College Costs by Henry E. Klugh Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description There are about three million new college every year. College is expensive; it is traumatic for the adolescent who doesnt know what to expect, and for their parents faced with horrendous costs to students and unsure if this college, or any college, is the best choice. "Cutting College Costs And Other Good Ideas for College Students" is written to reduce the anxiety of both parents and new college students. The books emphasis is on reducing the cost of college. While financial aid of various sorts is available and is discussed, the book emphasizes other ways to control costs. It also covers virtually every aspect of college from selecting the right school to dealing with the first years experience, and, eventually, dealing with the colleges placement office. This 42,400 word book begins with high school and explains how the AP and CLEP programs can earn college credit and thereby save money. Is special coaching to improve entrance exam performance worthwhile? How do you select a school likely to welcome you? The powerful college marketing process is examined and some reality about what to expect on your campus visit is provided. The college ranking industry is questioned. The pros and cons of an Ivy League education are discussed. Proprietary colleges and their problems are highlighted as are the variety of online and hybrid online courses. Saving money by beginning at a community college and then transferring to a four year school is explored, as is living at home and commuting, with the inherent problems and benefits of these routes. The difference between colleges and universities is described, giving attention to the advantages and disadvantages of school size, and who is likely to be teaching the undergraduates in each one. Reducing the high cost of college textbooks, attending class, drinking and drugs, and getting along with roommates are all discussed. There are sections on how to study, how to take tests, evaluating faculty, buying term papers, the colleges counseling service, and fraternities and sororities. Much of the material is based on the authors personal experience through eight years of college and graduate school, and over thirty years as a college professor. Author Biography Dr. Henry E.
