The information provided in the book was informative, however over 1/3 of the letters I mailed out requesting scholarship information were returned due to bad addresses.

This book is an OUTSTANDING resource for high school students and parents who want a nuts-and-bolts guide to navigating the confusing college admissions and financial aid process with a sensitivity to issues concerning African Americans!!! I only wish that I could have benefitted from the wealth of information included in the pages of the Black Excel African American Student’s College Guide back when I was a high school student! I would definitely recommend this book not only for African American high school students, but also for junior high school students who have aspirations to obtain a college education and get into the best school for them! I commend Isaac Black for writing this book and I plan to continue to recommend it to students that I mentor and meet!

This book is well worth the price. It has paid for itself quite a few times!

I work in a Middle Senior High School and I’ve purchased several copies of this book for students and friends’ children that are headlong into their college search. This book helped my daughter select Duke University as her second choice school of which she’s presently starting her third year there.
