College tuition continues to rise every year and the increase in cost is being tacked right on to loans for both the students and their families. These loans end up taking years and years to pay off and cost a fortune in interest.

What is the best way to avoid racking up thousands of dollars in debt for education? Win college scholarships.

When I applied to college for my undergraduate degree I filled out about 15 scholarship applications. I was stoked when I heard that I was getting $4,000 for college. The applications each took less than an hour to do, so my hourly rate was well over $250/hour.

After winning these scholarships what did teenager Caleb do instead of filling out more scholarship applications before and during college? Who knows? I only applied for a few more throughout my four year degree and for graduate school. I should have been applying for more and put in the extra time on each one to win more scholarships.

If you or someone you know is attending college and wants doesn’t want to be stuck with thousands of dollars worth of debt, college scholarships are the best way to do it. Someone can’t just fill out applications and write essays like everyone else if they want to actually win scholarships though. They have to determine how they can stand out and convey that through the entire application process.

How Can You Stand Out When Applying for Scholarships?

You can stand out when you apply for scholarships by learning from someone who has won over $190,000.

Enter James Clear from Passive Panda. During his four years of undergraduate studies and his graduate studies for an MBA, James won $194,238 in scholarships and two free trips to Europe. Luckily for you (or parents footing the bill), he compiled everything he did to earn these scholarships into an easy-to-read guide.

It is not just a list of websites to look for scholarships or a way to cheat the system though. This guide is filled with 15 concrete lessons to follow that can easily earn someone thousands of dollars worth of scholarships.

It is a steal at $79 when you consider you could easily win thousands of dollars worth of scholarships by following his advice.

Here is everything that is included with Winning College Scholarships:

  • 38–page guide on winning college scholarships.
  • 46–minute special access interview with a veteran Admissions officer describing what schools look for.
  • 25–minute exclusive interview with a nationally–known scholarship coach covering the 5 places to get funding for college.
  • Plus, a free bonus: a 15-minute private Q&A session with Passive Panda founder, James Clear.

Whether you are applying to college or graduate school yourself or you know someone that will, I highly recommend you pick up Win College Scholarships by James Clear.

(If college scholarships aren’t relevant to you, James is also launching a new product for How to Email Important People today.)
