One way that students can really save is by obtaining books for free. Project Gutenberg is one resource that English majors will find invaluable. At this site students can peruse a vast collection of classics that have entered
public domain. In
past students seeking assistance with their studies had to pay for
privilege of that help by purchasing study guides. Today that is no longer
case. Cash-strapped students can now visit Spark Notes for free downloadable study guides as well as free downloadable classics.
Students who elect to buy online will no longer be able to resell their books to
college bookstore at
end of class, but that doesn't mean that they are stuck with
textbooks. Many web sites that sell textbooks also offer students
option of selling their books to fellow bargain-seekers. This allows students to easily recouping a portion of their money.
Textbooks normally consume a major portion of a student's budget, but that doesn't have to be
case, because while
cost of tuition may be set in stone
price of textbooks isn't. By taking
time to do a little research on
best textbook values available college students can save money now rather than acquiring debt to be paid back later.
