The Way To College: The College Information Network

Reviewed by Anise Hollingshead Bookloons Reviews	“I have read several different books on this subject, and this is my favorite one out of the bunch. Reecy Aresty, a financial advisor who specializes in college financial aid, has written a book that details practical advice and tips on how to prepare early for getting into college, beginning with the student's high school freshman year. There are sections on financial assistance and information, but the main brunt of the book focuses on getting into the school in the first place. The later chapters feature financial planning, and how colleges and the government look at financial assets when computing a family's expected financial contribution. Aresty's book has just the right amount of information, and also the right kind. 'How to Pay for College Without Going Broke' is the perfect book for parents who don't have a clue about the process as it stands today.”
