Waste of Time and Money
Not only does this book have tons of typos but many of the resources listed seem to no longer exist or will lead you on a wild goose chase if they do exist. The supposed help on how to write essays and resumes states the obvious. For example, they explain that your applications should be free of dirt and stains and should be typed. If you don't already know that, good luck in college. This book claims to help non-traditional students. Of all the resources that might apply to me as a non-traditional student, I have found none worth pursuing. Either you have to pay a fee to apply for the scholarships and contests or you have to spend a fortune mailing requests for further information. I tried saving money by looking for information on the internet but ended up wasting more time than it was worth. It would be much easier to get a job and pay for your own school than spend the time and effort it takes to have a slim chance at winning a scholarship or contest that pays only $100.

Not for everyone
This book has a lot of information for someone headed to college. Don't bother with it if you are planning on a course of graduate study.

skip this book if returning to college
If I could give this book zero stars, I would have. There is nothing in this book for non traditional students. Similar Products
