Welcome To October!
You've got questions about the college application and admissions process. The College Whisperer™ has the answers. Ask The College Whisperer™. . .
A new month means that it is time, once again, to enter College Prowler's $2000 "No Essay" Scholarship Contest. [And while you are on the College Prowler site, be sure to check out the many other scholarship opportunities!]
In other news, an "on point" article on college rankings recently appeared in The New York Times. Check out, The College Rankings Racket. A good read and right on the money.

And speaking of money, if you want to get an estimate (as opposed to a "guesstimate") of what college is likely to cost you, check out the Net Price Calculator available on the website of the college(s) of your choice. [Typically found under Financial Aid or Tuition & Fees.] While not Gospel -- and often like comparing apples to oranges when attempting to compare one school's "real cost" to another's -- it should give you a rough idea as to what you'll pay out of pocket.
Last, but by no means least, to get an estimate of what in the way of financial aid you are likely to receive (again, an estimate), check out the FAFSA4caster.[Read more about FAFSA4caster by clicking HERE.]
Sticker shock? No doubt. That's why the hunt for scholarship money outside the institutional fin aid sphere is so very, very important. "Dig You Must!" And now is the time. . .
