💨 Abstract

The article discusses the pros and cons of paying for professional help with college scholarship searches. Darren Rose, founder of POM College Counseling, suggests that students can handle the scholarship search independently, similar to other tasks like doing taxes, but acknowledges the benefits of paying for assistance, such as time savings and expertise. Andrea Makriyianis, associate director of financial aid at the University of Richmond, notes that hiring help can provide peace of mind.
