You would think that with the internet, you would be able to find all of the same grants and scholarships on your own. I suppose you could. However, it can be an overwhelming task. This book gives you a very clean category listing and points you in the right direction. We found some grants here that searches had not uncovered. Then, we were able to use those as a starting point for more searches on line. It is not the end-all of grants but another tool you can use during your search.

It's all right if you are looking for state school ...
It's all right if you are looking for state school funding. Most grants and scholarships are state based NOT throughout the country.

It's good to just have in hand, beats the websites
It has a ton of resources, but it can be overwhelming at times. I wish it were laid out in a slightly different manner to be able to find them easier. Still, it's a good thing to have on hand, and surprisingly beats any website or searches for scholarships, as often the websites have even less information.

Minority prejudiced scholarships
Unless you are poor, indian hispanic or other minority dont bother buying this. It shows benefits for Extremely biased prejudiced scholarships that represent only a tiny percent of the population
