We Read it For You! - The Ultimate College Financial Aid Guide
2025-08-05 15:00 - 15:45
You’re doing everything right in the college application process–researching school fit, crafting the perfect essays, and tracking deadlines. But there’s one major factor that remains opaque: financial aid.
You’re staring at a confusing maze of acronyms, numbers, and fine print that could determine whether your dream education becomes a reality or a financial nightmare.
Here’s a sobering truth: only 40% of students who start college actually graduate in four years, and finances play a crucial role in that statistic. The difference between those who succeed and those who don’t often comes down to one critical factor – truly understanding how to navigate the financial aid system.

We Read it For You! - Where You Go Is Not Who You'll Be by Frank Bruni
2025-08-26 13:00 - 13:45
What if everything you’ve heard about the life-changing power of an Ivy League education is just wrong? Frank Bruni shatters the illusion that only elite colleges can unlock success, offering a refreshing antidote to the anxiety and frenzy that dominate today’s college admissions landscape.
Drawing on anecdotes, statistics, and profiles of accomplished individuals who did not attend elite schools, Bruni exposes the flaws in the college admissions mania and the rankings that fuel it. He argues that a student’s effort, passion, and resilience matter far more than the name on their diploma, and that a fulfilling, successful life can be achieved at a wide range of colleges, not just the most selective ones. The book reassures students and parents that true achievement is shaped by character and determination, not by the prestige of an alma mater.
