About this product

Product Information

High school students who get average grades and don't ace the SAT or ACT discover that an exceptional college education is by no means beyond their reach with this guide. Along with information on what to look for in a college and what colleges look for in their students besides grades, this college reference provides details on more than 175 colleges that make it a point to help students who have not achieved a stellar GPA and includes information on whether colleges feature extra tutoring, help from professors, and distance-learning programs. Advice on the application process emphasizes the schools that look beyond GPA to the extracurricular activities and community involvement at which many average students excel. Quelling both students' and parents' fears about finding a good education with a less-than-perfect academic record, this guide makes it clear that it is always possible. This updated edition has new data on student life, financial aid and costs, deadlines, and admissions information.

"This excellent 'advice' book is a must read for those students and their parents who want to understand and navigate the process and find the right match toward that important degree." --Karen P. Condeni, Vice President and Dean of Enrollment Ohio Northern University "Tamra Orr has made an important and rare contribution to the field of higher education. This book offers practical information and advice for students and parents alike." --Mark Campbell, Vice-President for Enrollment Management McKendree College "This book is a refreshingly candid guide that not only takes the fear out of the college search, but also prepares students for what they'll encounter once they find the right college. Tamra Orr's approach to the college search dispels the fear that B students and their families often face. An easy yet information-packed read!" --Bethany Bierman, Assistant Director Office of Undergraduate Admissions Augsburg College
