Description: Brand NewProduct InformationHi, Everyone, I wrote this book because I kept hearing questions about college that I couldn't answer in a satisfying way. As the parent of a fifteen- and a five-year-old, I also needed the answers for myself. I heard from: Parents in Harlem who wanted to know how much they should sacrifice to send a child to a small, private liberal arts college instead of a state school. A family in Ohio with three kids who hadn't saved much and wanted to know whether they'd be punished for that-or whether financial and might still come their way. Guidance counselors in California struggling heroically just to help hundreds of students each year reckon with the uncertain odds of admission. How could they better predict what scholarships they might receive? Teens in the Chicago suburbs who wanted their parents to talk honestly about what they were willing to spend and borrow. How could they get their parents to open up? In a decade of writing a personal finance column for the Wall Street Journal and then the New York Times, I hadn't come across a clear formula for what to pay for college. So I made it my mission to find one. I spent several years in search of answers, pulling the curtain back on how the system works. You told me you wanted help naming and reckoning with the unhelpful feelings that the process of saving and paying for college seems designed to evoke. You wanted to know what was worth paying extra for an any given school and how to shop for it. You wanted to know how the so-called merit aid system works. And you definitely wanted to know what, exactly, we owned our kids. The result of those years of research is the book you're holding in your hands. Thanks to this work, I feel a sense of calm bout the process that I lacked before. My greatest hope is that when you're done reading, you will feel it, too.
