100 Ways to Cut the High Cost of Attending College goes beyond
giving information on college scholarships and financial aid
programs. Viollt's book spells out in a clear, concise, workbook
format many different ways that students can reduce tuition costs
and living expenses, and get the maximum benefits for their money.
Examples of Viollt's recommendations include transferring from
community college, establishing in-state residency, obtaining
federal grants and loans, working for colleges in exchange for
stipends or free housing, using employers and military service to
help in getting a college degree, and graduating in a timely
fashion without having to pay for extra semesters. Also included
are rankings of colleges and profiles of students that show these
tips put into practice. The skyrocketing costs of college
tuitions-which generally increase at twice the rate of
inflation-have led families with comfortable incomes to explore
ways to keep education costs manageable. For those who don't
qualify for need-based financial aid but still find the cost of
college to be daunting, Viollt's guide provides excellent insights
on staying within a reasonable budget while getting a useful and
comprehensive education.
