As the grandmother of a soon-to-be high school graduate, I am concerned about the ever-increasing cost of a college education. So when I heard about a book titled "Free College" I was immediately intrigued.
I was concerned that we were already too late to the table, so to speak, but the information in this book is beneficial at any point in a college-bound student's academic life. The book is well-written, easy-to-read, and lays out all the necessary steps in a very detailed and organized manner.
I read through it right away and then passed it on to my daughter and grandchildren. Both were excited to learn things they could do to help decrease their student debt and increase their chances of a scholarship - particularly the 13 year old since she has dreams of medical school - and more time to put the actions in this book into actual practice!
A very worthwhile read for any family with children heading to college one day. Highly recommended!

Elizabeth Wallace takes you step by step through 17 behaviors that all full scholarship winners have practiced. It is written in a manor that makes each step easy to do, without them feeling at all overwhelming.
