Getting Financial Aid 2009August 31, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This publication is an essential reference in applying for financial aid at US colleges. It tells the prospective student how to apply and lists 1000's of available scholarships. Indexing could be improved. Scholarships are listed alphabetically by state. There is no index to type of scholarship.
