A guide to financial aid and paying for school “filled with nuggets of insight and wit from one who succeeded against the odds and aims to inspire others” (Dr. Robert M. Franklin, President Emeritus, Morehouse College).

Matthew Pigatt made the transformation from a juvenile delinquent with a 2.1 GPA in high school to a national award-winning researcher, graduating magna cum laude from Morehouse. In this book, Matthew uses his journey of entering college on academic probation and covering all tuition with loans—to securing over $100,000 in scholarships, fellowships, and awards—as a springboard for a detailed, step-by-step guide to academic and career achievement.

The Academic Hustle gives a personal accounting of strategies uncovered while conducting research on high achievers. Through experience and research, Pigatt has refined a system that has been replicated by hundreds of other students to secure scholarships, grants, internships, and jobs—amounting to millions in funding for their career development. Learn how to: • Develop a plan for your career • Find and apply for scholarships • Win awards and be recognized • Cultivate a network for success • Master time and manage money • Develop an impressive résumé
