Book excerpt: Every parent wants the best for their child. That’s why they send them to college! But most parents struggle to pay for school and end up turning to student loans. That’s why the majority of graduates walk away with $35,000 in student loan debt and no clue what that debt will really cost them.1 Student loan debt doesn’t open doors for young adults—it closes them. They postpone getting married and starting a family. That debt even takes away their freedom to pursue their dreams. But there is a different way. Going to college without student loans is possible! In Debt-Free Degree, Anthony ONeal teaches parents how to get their child through school without debt, even if they haven’t saved for it. He also shows parents: *How to prepare their child for college *Which classes to take in high school *How and when to take the ACT and SAT *The right way to do college visits *How to choose a major A college education is supposed to prepare a graduate for their future, not rob them of their paycheck and freedom for decades. Debt-Free Degree shows parents how to pay cash for college and set their child up to succeed for life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why fears about a looming student loan crisis are unfounded—and how they obscure what's really wrong with student lending College tuition and student debt levels have been rising at an alarming pace for at least two decades. These trends, coupled with an economy weakened by a major recession, have raised serious questions about whether we are headed for a major crisis, with borrowers defaulting on their loans in unprecedented numbers and taxpayers being forced to foot the bill. Game of Loans draws on new evidence to explain why such fears are misplaced—and how the popular myth of a looming crisis has obscured the real problems facing student lending in America. Bringing needed clarity to an issue that concerns all of us, Beth Akers and Matthew Chingos cut through the sensationalism and misleading rhetoric to make the compelling case that college remains a good investment for most students. They show how, in fact, typical borrowers face affordable debt burdens, and argue that the truly serious cases of financial hardship portrayed in the media are less common than the popular narrative would have us believe. But there are more troubling problems with student loans that don't receive the same attention. They include high rates of avoidable defaults by students who take on loans but don’t finish college—the riskiest segment of borrowers—and a dysfunctional market where competition among colleges drives tuition costs up instead of down. Persuasive and compelling, Game of Loans moves beyond the emotionally charged and politicized talk surrounding student debt, and offers a set of sensible policy proposals that can solve the real problems in student lending.

Book excerpt: Education should NOT be a DEBT sentence If you've been told, "The only way you can go to college is to take out loans," you've been lied to! With the student loan debt crisis continuing to spiral out of control, this book proves that IT IS POSSIBLE to earn a degree without amassing tens of thousands of dollars in debt. Learn from not only the author's story of earning two debt-free degrees, but from other individuals who also achieved the same accomplishment - all through a variety of methods. The book provides relevant information to help potential higher education students graduate debt free by: - Understanding the real cost of college Learning how to find millions in unused scholarship and grant money Exploring more cost-efficient means to traditional college Saving money while in college - yes, it is possible! This book serves as the "answer" to the student loan debt crisis and is designed to provide strategies and offer hope to individuals who desire to avoid student loan debt and graduate debt free. The author has lived on both sides of this crisis as his wife once held $60,000 in student loan debt while he was fortunate to earn two debt-free degrees. This book was created to inspire and encourage you to realize that IT IS POSSIBLE to walk across that stage and be handed a diploma instead of receiving bills in the mail for student loan debt to be repaid. Additionally, it shows you that life can be lived a different way-a way that does not include constantly feeling stress, anxiety, and depression over money. Did You Know? 70% of college students graduate with debt. Become part of the 30%!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A groundbreaking guide to “how you can get the most value for your money . . . If you don’t want to waste a decade languishing in student debt, this is the book” (Zac Bissonnette, New York Times–bestselling author of Debt-Free U). There’s a better way to do college. The radically counter-cultural truth is that students don’t have to be totally dependent on Mom, Dad, or Uncle Sam to get the most out of college. Graduation on a solid financial foundation is possible. But it will require intentionality, creativity, hard work, and a willingness to delay gratification. Alex Chediak gets into the nitty-gritty of how to get work and make money during the college years, pay off any loans quickly, spend less, save more, and stay out of debt for good. He also unpacks how to transition from college into career, honor God while achieving financial independence, and use your finances to make a positive, eternally significant difference in the lives of others. As a young engineering professor with an aptitude for finances and money management, Chediak has become particularly concerned with the financial health of young adults, especially in light of the ever-increasing costs of college. In Beating the College Debt Trap he does something about this problem—addressing the real-world financial issues faced by those in their late teens and early twenties with clarity, practical help, lots of illustrations, and a little humor, while conveying a distinctly Christian perspective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it still worth it for low-income students to attend college, given the debt incurred? This book provides a new framework for evaluating the financial aid system in America, positing that aid must not only allow access to higher education, but also help students succeed in college and facilitate their financial health post-college. Higher education plays a critical role in the economy and society of the United States, creating a ladder of economic opportunity for American children, especially for those in poverty. Unfortunately, higher education today increasingly reinforces patterns of relative privilege, particularly as students without the benefit of affluent parents rely more and more on student loans to finance college access. This book presents penetrating new information about the fiscal realities of the current debt-based college loan system and raises tough questions about the extent to which student loans can be a viable way to facilitate equitable access to higher education. The book opens with relevant parts of the life stories of two students—one who grew up poor and had to take on high amounts of student debt, and another whose family could offer financial help at critical times. These real-life examples provide invaluable insight into the student debt problem and help make the complex data more understandable. A wide range of readers—from scholars of poverty, social policy, and educational equality to policymakers to practitioners in the fields of student financial aid and financial planning—will find the information in this text invaluable.

Book excerpt: This book analyzes reliable evidence to tell the true story of student debt in America. One of the nation’s foremost experts on college finance, Sandy Baum exposes how misleading the widely accepted narrative on student debt is. Baum combines data, research, and analysis to show how the current discourse obscures serious problems, risks misdirecting taxpayer dollars, and could deprive too many Americans of the educational opportunities they deserve. This book and its policy recommendations provide the basis for a new and more constructive national agenda to make paying for college more manageable.
