Summary: A must have for every family now 2008-11-15
Comment: This "how to" book is a must have for every family with teenagers interested in sports. It fills the gap left by overworked high school/career/college counselors who don't have the time to create a personalized approach to scholarship applications. As early as 13 yrs old, students and their parents should use this book to guide their thinking about schools and scholarships. It is systematic and easy to follow, and its suggestions work. The authors continue to update it every two years, so information is timely. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Exactly What We Needed 2008-06-19
Comment: As the parent of a high school junior in the throes of preparing for College, I wish I had found this book 5 years ago. It is easily the best organized step-by-step handbook I've ever seen to prepare for scholarship applications. Many of the suggestions apply beyond sports. It especially helped me communicate with my son about what we needed to do.
I recommend it to all teens and their parents.

Summary: Excellent tool that works! 2007-11-10
Comment: Super workbook that not only provides step by step guidance, but also expands your knowledge and options! As a college counselor, I always recommend it to my sports-minded clients and I refer to it frequently myself. Every parent with a college bound student can benefit from this insider/outsider perspective of college scholarship opportunities.
