Low expectations of Black students' performances and lack of study skills are two of the most important factors that cause Black students to perform poorly academically in high school and college. Author Charles W. Cherry II, who earned two masters-level degrees simultaneously, focuses on teaching skills like time management, goal-setting, aggressive listening, speed reading, effective note-taking, library and computer research, test-taking and memory systems, image management, and self-knowledge to improve Black students' scholastic performances.

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

This encouraging guide coaches African American and first-generation college students on strategies for maximizing their experiences and success on university campuses. Marked gaps in academic achievements continue to exist between white and black students on college campuses in America. This motivational book, with contributions from academic role models from within the African American community, provides tools to help ethnically diverse students choose the best college, improve their study skills, and cope with academic anxiety. From college selection to graduation, this practical resource provides firsthand accounts of successful college experiences and the strategies used by former students to obtain their degrees. This work is divided into four parts. After an introductory section that addresses how to find the right college for aspiring students, the second part discusses the culture of an academic environment and reveals what incoming students may discover on a new campus. The third section introduces the language and lingo used in college settings. Finally, the guide concludes with conversations with successful African Americans who have achieved their undergraduate, graduate, and professional degrees. The content also features a helpful college and university directory.
