So many books about college focus on the four-year experience for those who are clear about their goals and potential. Finally, someone has addressed the needs of those who are not quite sure what to do and how to do it. Whether for financial or academic reasons, not all high school students can make the decision about college. Ms. Stafford’s book is a great balance of helpful advice and encouragement. For adults, the message is clear–it’s not late, either. I’m sending a copy to my nephew who just completed high school and just isn’t sure what is next. This is a must for all school libraries and guidance counselors. Thank you!
