Abstract:

This list of books and Web addresses is intended to help students locate financial aid. Students themselves are in the best position to determine which aid programs they may be qualified for and which best meet their needs. This list includes both general and comprehensive works, as well as ones targeted toward specific types of aid and circumstances (e.g., non-need-based scholarships, female and minority students, or students studying abroad). The works cited should be considered as samples of the types of guides available through libraries, high school guidance offices, college financial aid offices, and the Web. Many libraries provide access to the Internet and the Web for public use. This report will be updated annually.
