Cash for College: How to get scholarships
Most students and parents are under the impression that you need to either be an Olympic-caliber athlete or have perfect test scores and grades to qualify for some free money, but that’s not necessarily the case. With proper planning, research, and ambition, many students can qualify for and receive a scholarship that is right for them.

Early, Rolling, Regular: When Should You Apply?
There is no one answer to the question of Early vs. Regular, and feel free to walk away from anyone who tries to tell you otherwise. What is right for you will depend on your unique combo of circumstances, ambitions, and constraints. Check out the different options broken down below.  

Finding the Perfect Fit: A college sizing guide
Colleges don’t exactly come in one size that fits all. There are schools as small as a few dozen students and others that have the populations of small countries. Various student body sizes produce drastically different college experiences, so it is important to figure out what size suits you according to your persona.

Tackling the Tests: The good, the bad, and the money
With so much riding on how high school students handle the dreaded standardized tests known as the SAT and the ACT, it’s not surprising that parents empty their wallets with hopes that their son or daughter will score that perfect 2400 on the SAT or that flawless 36 on the ACT.
