About the book

 

Back when Ben Kaplan was a student, he didn’t have a clue how to get admitted to his dream college, afford big-time tuition bills, succeed in the studies, or chart a path to his dream career. So he researched every educational resource, tracked down every scholarship lead, and interviewed hundreds of other successful students, too. The result? Kaplan attended Harvard virtually for free and became a successful entrepreneur, speaker, higher education advocate, and CEO.

In Scholars & Dollars, he’s finally written the book that shows you how to do it, too. From strategies to unlock educational opportunities and accelerate career possibilities to tactics for supersizing financial aid and saving on related expenses, Kaplan helps you achieve similar educational, financial, and career success — whatever your personal definition of that success may be.

“A talk-show and bookstore favorite.”

“As one well-worn Chinese proverb goes, ‘to know the road ahead, ask those coming back.’ In the case of paying for college, we’d want to ask Ben Kaplan.”
