"Great book for people seeking scholarships. Resume writing tips. How to win a scholarship etc."
- Luwanda Bost
"Very comprehensive and a great resource. Jam-packed with scholarships. The only down-side is it's hard to navigate. They are organized in broad groupings such as "General scholarships" or "Scholarships by State" but then they are listed alphabetically but name of scholarships which doesn't allow you to pinpoint them. Going page-by-page with a highlighter is the only way. Scholarships should be cross-referenced with indexes."
