Hi Ana, How to Win College Scholarships is only available as a pdf download or in CD form (the information is on the CD, you just pop it into your computer and the guide comes up on your screen). If you order the CD, it has both Parent and Student versions on it. If you want the pdf download, you choose either the Parent version, the Student version, or the Parent/Student version. I hope that helps! Feel free to ask any more questions if you need further clarification.
