Saving Money on College Textbooks
Many students will be gearing up very soon and heading off to college thus I thought that I would start a series of posts geared towards saving money on college expenses as well as financing options. Financial Aid Sense has a number of published articles - tonight I will share the first of many.
Check out our article on "How to Save Money on College Textbooks" for some valuable information on how to slice book costs. Financial Aid Sense is also packed with helpful information about the entire college financing process.

FAFSA4CASTER
Greetings folks! Hopefully you have all read the page on the BLOG about filing your FAFSA at www.fafsa.ed.gov and have been able to complete that task (and if you haven't NOW is the time!)
While you wait for your FAFSA to get processed, check out the FAFSA4CASTER on the Federal Student Aid Site. This site is very helpful and can give you an idea of what your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) for the upcoming academic year will be. As you know from reading my BLOG, the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) is the amount that you are deemed able to pay toward the cost of college for one academic year. The EFC is used in computing federal financial aid eligibility and should be used as a guide when budgeting and planning for college.
