Experts Praise the Book. . .

"I've worked with adult students for more than fourteen years, and it's still always exciting to discover a new book to use with my students. The Adult Student's Guide to Survival & Success will help me do my job better. The book is timely, filled with insight, well-organized and fun to read!"

Diane J. Willis
Coordinator of Undergraduate Advising and Student Svcs

"It is the best source of information we find."

Carol Sasaki
Founder of the Helping Ourselves Means Education network
recommending The Adult Student's Guide to her 50,000 member organization.

"The Adult Student's Guide inspires hope and courage. It is nationally useful not institutionally bound. It is knowledgable and practical, yet visionary. It provides a critical resource not available even from good teachers;"

Esther Matthews, Ed.D, Past President
National Career Development Association

"This is a book that had to be written. I'll recommend it to every reentry student who comes to my office. I could not be more pleased!"

. . .And Students Love It!

"Thanks for this book. It is excellent. This is the best money that I have ever spent."

Rory Thompson, minority student

"If it hadn't been for this book I would have walked off the college campus and never come back. I know I will read it a million times."

Claudia Torgenson, student

"Since I decided to go back to college to re-educate myself, four questions bothered me. The Adult Student's Guide answered them. I know I am not too old to study, I will be accepted by other students, the college provides free service to help me, and the book is a good guide for improving learning skill."

Robert Sang, Southeast Asian student

"Thank you for helping me gain the courage to go back to school! I'm 51 years old, always wanted to be an RN, now divorced after 26 years and have 5 children. Going back to school at my age seemed ridiculous, financial obstacles overwhelming. Thanks for the motivation to get out of the rut and into life again!"

Sharon Grodevant, student
