Now, in It's the Student, Not the College, she shows how to avoid unrepayable debt and set yourself up to grow, excel, and enjoy yourself at any school.

Plus . . . * Why what you do in school counts more than where you go * 14 surefire ways to develop your Success Profile as a student and beyond * Criteria to consider when choosing a college * How to find a good fit for your family's finances * And tips for graduating career-ready and landing a great first job.
