Managing College Costs for Adult Learners
8/26/2009

An August 25, 2009 Forbes article discusses ways in which adult learners can manage the costs of attending college. Included in the suggested guidelines are attending free job training programs that may be offered in the local community, submitting the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine eligibility for need-based financial aid, taking advantage of tax breaks that are available for college students, and utilizing education benefits that may be provided by the student's employer or earned through military service.

The article is available at the Forbes Web site.
