Inhaltsangabe

Covering all forms of financial assistance to students?gifts, loans, and work?this first comprehensive book on the subject takes a hard look at what is going on in American colleges and universities.

 

The twenty-eight original essays, written for the volume, are especially timely for two reasons: first, institutions of higher education, both public and private, have a heightened interest in institutional finan­cial support from all sources, including that available from student tuition (and thus indirectly from student financial-aid sources); and second, state and federal agencies, especially Congress, are review­ing and revising the aid programs which they sponsor (a matter of grave concern to institutions which depend on such funds for a substantial portion of their incomes).

 

Divided into five parts, the work cov­ers the philosophy and history of finan­cial aid to students in American univer­sities and colleges, the various programs currently in force, the organization and administration of student financial assis­tance, professional careers open to ad­visors, counselors, and administrators, and an overview summing up the ideas and recommendations of the distinguished pro­fessionals who have contributed to the volume.

 

Though addressed primarily to admin­istrators and to students of higher educa­tion, the book should be read by policy-makers?by college and university presidents and deans, by trustees, and by state and federal legislators.
