College Apps 101: Princeton Review expands online course offerings — from Education-Portal.com

This fall, the Princeton Review will expand their college prep offerings to online courses on college admissions and financial aid. Moderately priced, the courses target families who can’t afford private admissions counseling but want more information for their college-bound kids.

In a bid to expand their business, the Princeton Review is jumping in to take up some of the slack. Starting in September 2010, the Princeton Review will be offering online courses on college admissions and financial aid. Priced between $70 and $200 for individual classes, with package deals available, the courses are geared toward low- to middle-income families who can’t afford ‘traditional’ private counseling.
