5th Edition The Editors of Barron’s Educational Series, Inc. - All books by this author Over 70 of the most academically competitive four-year colleges in the United States are described in detail, each entry written by a recent graduate of that school. The book’s personalized entries offer insights that readers aren’t likely to find in other college directories, such as descriptions of campus environment, social life and activities, and nearby off-campus activities and points of interest. Each college profile also includes the standard “need-to-know” facts and figures, such as admission requirements, academic programs, tuitions and fees, application procedures, sources of financial aid, library and research facilities, student body composition, and admission contacts. Not every aspiring student can get into America’s most competitive colleges, and this book also suggests application strategies, study strategies, essay-writing strategies, and financing strategies designed to help students gain admission. A detail-filled Most Competitive Comparison Chart offers at-a-glance statistics to help readers compare each college. High school student counselors will value this comprehensive directory as a vital addition to their reference shelf. High-achieving high school students and their parents will also turn to this book when seeking information on America’s very best colleges and universities. From the Reviews: Praise for the previous edition. “This is a most unique volume in the crowded college guide field. It deserves a place in all libraries.” —Marshall E. Nunn, ARBAonline, American Reference Books Annual 2005, Volume 36 "...this book does a much better job of describing the unique characteristics of the 50 plus schools it profiles than almost anything else on the market...The book impressed me. It should impress counselors and it should be very helpful to students seeking to distinguish the life style on campus from one school to another." —College Spotlight, January/February, 2002 (0764137603) Paperback / 1040 Pages / 7 3/8 x 9 1/4 / 2007 |
