I very much appreciated reading Dr. Davis' book. I found the personalized writing style to be reassuring and supportive in understanding and addressing the decisions, procedures, and forms that parents and students face in coping with the college tuition crisis. The information has helped me become a better educated consumer in the college financial aid process.
