This podcast dives into the real-world journey of pursuing a debt-free degree—whether you’re in high school exploring dual enrollment and college scholarships, or a graduate student seeking out scholarships for women, STEM scholarships, or funding strategies for advanced degrees. We cover everything from using the net price calculator and tools like MyIntuition to understand true college costs, to applying for college grants such as the Pell Grant through the FAFSA.

Listeners will also find budgeting tips and strategies inspired by Dave Ramsey, including insights from Financial Peace University, Ramsey Solutions, and the EveryDollar app. We’ll explore practical ways to save money, build a college fund through a 529 plan, and weigh options like the Parent PLUS Loan, federal student loans, or even private student loans. Along the way, we share proven approaches to scholarship strategy and highlight scholarship search engines like ScholarshipOwl and Scholarships360 that can simplify the hunt.

    305 - How I Got FREE Textbooks For College, and You Can Too!
    Sep 3 2025

    Are textbook prices stacking up and you wish you could forget the expense altogether? Is it truly possible? YES! Because I did, and I'll be telling you how, along with finding cheap textbooks to rent.

    You don't want to miss the awesome steps and tricks that I lay out. Grab your cold brew and TI-89, because class is now in session.

    I can also personally help you!! I guarantee finding students between $10,000-30,000 in scholarships for college, university, grad school, law school, etc. I cannot guarantee that you will for sure receive the scholarships, as you will need to apply for them yourself, but I can at least provide the opportunities.
