No other book offers this much practical guidance on choosing a college...and no other book will save you as much money! • Secrets your school’s guidance counselor doesn’t know yet The surprising ways colleges have changed how they do business • Get every dime of financial aid that’s out there for you Be a “fly on the wall” inside the college financial aid office • U.S. News & World Report: clueless about your child Beyond one-size-fits-all rankings: finding the right program for your teenager • The best bargains in higher education Overlooked academic choices that just might be perfect for you

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The radical transformation that universities are undergoing today is no less far-reaching than the upheavals that it experienced in the 1960s. However today, when almost 50 per cent of young people participate in higher education, what occurs in universities matters directly to the whole of society. On both sides of the Atlantic curious and disturbing events on campuses has become a matter of concern not just for academics but also for the general public. What is one to make of the growing trend of banning speakers? What’s the meaning of trigger warnings, cultural appropriation, micro-aggression or safe spaces? And why are some students going around arguing that academic freedom is no big deal? What's Happened To The University? offers an answer to the questions of why campus culture is undergoing such a dramatic transformation and why the term moral quarantine refers to the infantilising project of insulating students from offence and a variety of moral harms.

Book excerpt: Choosing the right college is one of the most important decisions in your life, so you want to have all the right information you need to be available for all the colleges you are considering. After visiting several colleges over several months and gathering tons of information, it can be overwhelming to attempt to put it all together and honestly compare all of the schools you visited at different times. When you were starting out, you had different questions and looked for different things than when you have some experience in the college search. There is so much information to gather in such a short time during a college visit that you might forget to capture some or ask all your questions. And once the visit is over, you might forget some of what you saw and learned. A formatted journal will help you to consistently organize your college visit information so that you will be able to compare information you gathered from different schools point-by-point, even months later. The journal includes: Checklists to prepare you before you visit the college A set of questions to get you started looking for what you need Checkboxes to easily track information about the school (small, large, rural, urban, etc.) without having to scribble down a lot of stuff while you are also trying to pay attention to what you are seeing Forms for taking notes and making evaluations during your visit so you can can compare consistent information across schools even months later Full 8.5 X 11" pages to give you enough space to record all your important information The journal is large enough to contain information from 25 college visits and includes space to attach handouts, flyers, maps etc. By keeping this all in one place, you can easily and quickly review all of the colleges you have visited and see what you thought of each one while you were there.
