EPISODE 3:
HOW TO GET A COLLEGE Degree WITHOUT GOING BROKE
Hosted by Harriette Cole

The Root Live: Bring It to the Table returns Wednesday, Sept. 24, with a highly informative discussion about ways to get a college education without going broke. The Root Live, sponsored by Prudential, is a weekly video series tackling financial concerns in the African-American community. Since higher education is a priority for many African-American families, this is a must-watch episode.

Our guests will lay out some key strategies for funding an education: planning, research, solid academics, alternatives to expensive four-year schools and telling a compelling story. In addition, they will identify some of the best places to find scholarship money.
