Princeton Review Creates New Online Courses on College Admissions and Financial Aid

For the last 26 years, The Princeton Review has published resources on college admissions and test preparation. Now it is extending its reach online with the creation of a series of new courses on college admissions and financial aid for students and parents.

The courses, scheduled to begin in September, will include an "Overview of the College Application Process," "How to Conduct an Effective College Search," "Essay Writing Workshop," "Understanding the Financial Aid Process," "Completing the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid)," and "Understanding Your Financial Aid Offer."

The costs for the courses range from $70 to $200.

"We believe these new services will allow us to continue to be a more comprehensive partner in helping high school students achieve their higher education goals," said Scott Kirkpatrick, president, Test Preparation and Admissions Services Division.
