Inhaltsangabe

Nobody knows more about college than Edward B. Fiske, whose annual college guide is consistently ranked the very best of the bunch. This book walks students step-by-step through the application process, and shows them how to apply to the appropriate schools, craft a successful application, make the most of interviews and visits, decide once the admissions letters are in, and obtain scholarships and financial aid, and more.

Rezensionen

Fiske, author of the well-known series of college guides, as well as How to Get into the Right College (1988), here teams up with Hammond to present an exceptionally useful overview for the college bound. Parents will certainly be interested (one chapter is addressed especially to them), but the authors are really writing directly to students. Information on everything from interviews to standardized tests, college essays, and financing is included, along with a handy "road map" of institutions, organized into such categories as "Small College Bargains," "Most Innovative Curriculums," and "Colleges for Students with Learning Disabilities." In addition, there is a selective roundup of listings by subject specialty--engineering, architecture, business, etc. Further resources, including Web sites, appear in a separate chapter. In all, this is a first-rate introduction that will help students narrow the field while still allowing them to cover the territory. Stephanie Zvirin
