Synopsis:
Uncertain about how you're going to pay for college? Afraid of drowning in a sea of student debt? Well fear not--Benjamin Kaplan once felt that way too. But that was before he discovered that hundreds of millions of dollars in scholarship prizes are waiting to be won. After winning nearly $90,000 in unrestricted merit-based scholarship money (which covered virtually the entire cost of attending Harvard), Kaplan has come storming back with a no-holds-barred guide showing how you can do it too. In How To Go To College Almost For Free, Kaplan builds upon his own experiences, and adds insights from interviews with other scholarship winners--revealing insider secrets that put scholarship money within the reach of all students, regardless of their GPAs. The result is an "indispensable resource for high school and college students, as well as for families caught in the middle-income financial aid crunch."
About the Author: Benjamin Kaplan, age 22, won more than two dozen merit-based scholarships while still in high school--accumulating nearly $90,000 in scholarship money for use at any college. In 1999, he graduated from Harvard debt-free, with virtually the entire cost of his education covered by his scholarship winnings. Kaplan has written numerous articles on the subject, including columns for The New York Times and U.S. News & World Report, that have been syndicated in publications nationwide. Kaplan also conducts scholarship seminars throughout the country, consults with organizations desiring to set up scholarship programs, and serves as the resident scholarship coach at the WinScholarships.com Web scholarship portal.
