The College Reputation Fairytale: An Exposé of Elite Degrees, And Why You Can Succeed Without One

By Jonathan R. Perinetti

One of society's hallmark measures of success is the college degree. Each year, high school students across the country work hard on their applications in the hopes of getting into their dream school. And as they've put more and more weight on college reputations, many have come to believe that "top ranked" schools may be their only path to a bright future. But is this really true?

In The College Reputation Fairytale, Jonathan R. Perinetti draws on his experiences as both an elite university alumnus and a university professor to break down common myths about "top schools." Follow Jonathan's journey as he recounts his struggles to overcome his past and get into one of America's most competitive schools, reveals his disappointments as a student there - from the academics to romance to friendship - and further elaborates on how the prestigious name failed to come through for his career. He also provides advice and encouragement throughout the book for those enduring similar challenges.

If the stress of applying to college is bringing you down, this book might help you realize that attending a "safety school" isn't so bad. If you've been rejected from your dream school, this book might help you see that you won't be missing as much as you thought. And if you simply wonder what life might really be like at an elite institution, there's something here for you too.
