Do Less, Live More, Get Accepted What if getting into your reach schools didn’t require four years of excessive A.P. classes, overwhelming activity schedules, and constant stress? In How to Be a High School Superstar, Cal Newport explores the world of relaxed superstars—students who scored spots at the nation’s top colleges by leading uncluttered, low stress, and authentic lives. Drawing from extensive interviews and cutting-edge science, Newport explains the surprising truths behind these superstars’ mixture of happiness and admissions success, including: · Why doing less is the foundation for becoming more impressive. · Why demonstrating passion is meaningless, but being interesting is crucial. · Why accomplishments that are hard to explain are better than accomplishments that are hard to do. These insights are accompanied by step-by-step instructions to help any student adopt the relaxed superstar lifestyle—proving that getting into college doesn’t have to be a chore to survive, but instead can be the reward for living a genuinely interesting life.

There are dozens of other funding directories describing college aid. But, none of them are like this one. First, unlike other directories, the High School Senior's Guide focuses only on merit and no-need scholarships. Not one of the programs covered here requires financial need. Plus, only programs open to college-bound high school seniors are included. No more scanning through hundreds of listings that apply to currently-enrolled college students, not to you. In addition, the entries here are grouped by discipline, so you can go directly to the area you want to study. Not sure what your major will be? No problem. There's even a section listing programs that are open to support studies in any area. The High School Senior's Guide provides the only way to find money for college based soley on academic record, writing or artistic ability, speech-making skills, athletic success, high school club membership, religious or ethnic background, parents' military or organizational activities, and even pure luck in random drawings. Perhaps that's why College Financial Aid gave the High School Senior's Guide 4 stars--its highest rating!
