Excellent Guidance

This guide will assist you in getting into the college
which suits you best. It sets forth discriminating
criteria. i.e.
o Applicants to Syracuse University get between 540-640
on the language portion of the SAT and 580-680 in math
o Applicants to the New School have 4 units of english;
3 units of math and 3 units of HS science; your prior
school record is important; you should request an interview;
the written essay is an important part of your application;
standardized test scores are important

The typical school description contains the following data:
o admissions
o major fields of study
o professions served
o teacher certifications
o campus life
o services provided
o costs and key stats

This guide will be helpful in developing a baseline of
information on schools of interest . You should always
visit the institution of your choice and talk to both
students, as well as teachers/administrators.

Count on US News

Regardless of what you may hear. People can count on US News to continue to deliver solid information on higher education and even rank schools based on certain criteria. I reccommend guides like this as a starter if someone has no idea what school is best for them. Or if someone simply wants some information on a school in one handy book. Otherwise, it is going to be difficult to find this kind of information on your own. Solid guide.
