simpletuition-logoSimpleTuition, a company that offers online tools, tips and advice to college students to help them save money on education-related expenses, is announcing this morning that is has acquired ValoreBooks, an online textbook marketplace that offers discounts on rentals as well as new and used textbooks.Launched in 2006, SimpleTuition has been on a mission to help students reduce the seemingly ever-escalating cost of a college education, beginning with student loans. The company developed a "Loan Comparison" tool that allows students to find and compare affordable private and federal loans from providers like Wells Fargo, SallieMae, PNC and SunTrust. Along with loan comparison, SimpleTuition gives students tools to manage debt, find scholarships and plan their finances, like its recently-launched rewards program and online checking account.
