Book Reviews of Colleges That Change Lives: 40 Schools That Will Change the Way You Think About Colleges
Book Review: Fabulous Resource to Give Direction
Summary: 5 Stars
Just starting out our college search for our daughter (HS junior) and I was having a hard time getting focused--it's easy to get overwhelmed with available information. This book was just what I was looking for. We're planning a visit to Ursinus College in a couple of weeks. Great profiles of schools that DON'T include the typical SAT/GPA/tuition figures that you can find anywhere. Really gets to the heart of each school.
