It's also well-written and a pleasure to read — especially considering the difficult nature of college financial aid! I especially appreciated the exte. Leslie Leitner said This e-book was a life saver!. I'm not the type to read "extra" material in this particular subject matter - - but when I was faced with filling out the FAFSA and the idea that I could maybe maximize my kid's financial aid award if I understood the process better, I hunkered down one day and started reading this e-book. I was surprised by how easy it was to understand and how clear it made all the instructions. Not only did it clarify all kinds of questions in the form -. Outstanding guide that alerts parents to often overlooked opportunities to substantially lower their college costs this year Barry Fox Absolutely terrific book. Comprehensive and written in plain English. I am a professional financial aid counselor and consultant and you can be sure that this book is helpful for professionals and first time FAFSA filers. Covers every aspect of the FAFSA form. Well researched and up to date. Kudos to Mark.
